North Carolina

Submitted by Vicki Lais on Sun, 06/16/2002 - 11:00pmAgain this year, a number of BPS members visited several mines near Wilmington, North Carolina, the beach, and a shell pit a number of miles inland. We spent extra days there, from June 13 - 16. We found a good quantity of shark teeth and echinoids, and also found litterally thousands of shells.
Thanks to Ashley for setting up this multi-day excursion to a number of sites. It was a very interesting trip, and I hope the young student whom Ashley brought along contacts me sometime. Am very interested in how your life is going these days!

Submitted by Vicki Lais on Tue, 06/19/2001 - 11:00pmThis month BPS members took a long weekend, from June 15-17, driving to several quarries near Wilmington, North Carolina where Ashley had made arrangements to collect. There were numerous shells found at these sites, many in almost perfect condition. If one didn't know better, they could be mistaken for recent material.
