Fossil Sands

I was doing a final cleanout of my classroom this past week, and came upon a collection of fossiliferous sands. Some of them are spectacular! Over the next several weeks I'll be adding them to the pages. Have a great 4th!

It's been a while!

I am so sorry for not posting more often. We were away on the "left coast" and I brought back a TON of samples. Go to the California page and look at Death Valley, Alabama Hills, Torrey Pines, and Del Mar to see the results. It was a great trip! If there are any of you out there from a state that is still grey, I would love a sample. It's been two weeks since anything from a new state has arrived.

Here's a First!

For the first time, I don't have a new state! In all the times that I've done this, I've had at least one sample "waiting in the wings" to go on. That wasn't the case this week. I nknew this day would come, but I wasn't ready for it. Anyway, I have some great samples from Hawaii that were just sent in. Enjoy!

I'm Back!

I gave up, and went to a new server. The site is now at http://www.scienceofsand.info be sure to pay it a visit.

This is Getting Old!

The folks who manage my site still can't get me in. I think it's time for a change.

The Site is Still Down!

The nice folks who manage my site can't figure out why I can't post. THEY can, but I can't! Very frustrating. Hang in there, if you're out there. We're working on it.

Clear Skies,

Half Way There!

This week makes 25 down and 25 to go. We've also completed New England. The sample from Portsmouth is fantastic! Regardless of which sample you view, you think you're looking at large beach rocks. In fact, the samples are only a few mm across. I'm also having a problem with the server recognizing Front Page. It refused to take my last upload. It also has thrown away all of my titles. This could be the end of Front Page for me. I hope not, I'm very comfortable with it. Hopefulyy the problem is on the server's end, and they'll correct it! Have a great week.

Clear Skies,
