As many people know, BPS got its beginning with the Red Mountain Museum in 1984, where Gorden Bell, James Lamb and Scott Brande trained their first group of amateurs on how to assist professional paleontologists in the field. Larry joined us at the meeting location, modeling an ancient Leaping Lizards T-shirt from the old Red Mountain Museum. Unfortunately, he had to leave early and missed all the fun.

At lunchtime, James Lamb made the rounds of flags where members had marked fossil finds, with many of us tagging along to learn the proper scientific names (or at least hear them said out loud!), and see if what we found was actually fossil material!
