Fossil Hunting at Coon Creek

Mother's Day weekend the kids & I went fossil hunting at the Coon Creek Science Center. We had an awesome time and found TONS of fossils. The site contains Upper Cretaceous marine shells & vertebrate remains from 70 million years ago!

The kids @ the Orientation Center...ready to find some fossils!
