Yesterday's find-Quality not Quantity! :o)

I didn't get as many as Monday.

But I got a few bigger ones. I'm not sure what that big piece on the top is but it's definitely something. Someone told me it was fossil horse bone but I'll have to look it up. I'm particularly happy about the crooked-looking ones. They are from tiger sharks and I have only ever found a few. I don't know if they are rare for these parts but they are rare enough for me to get really excited about finding. I've always liked looking for shark teeth but it's that gigantic one I found last year that sort of started it all.



I was watching the sky all day for storm clouds. (I don't mind rain but I'm scared of lightning.)



I waited 4 hours for the storm to come so I would have an excuse to go home otherwise I have to force myself. Nothing came but these pretty clouds. I decided to give my skin and my eyes a break today and stay indoors.

I'm probably ruining my eyes.

That picture is just gorgeous! And who knew that sharks lost so many teeth. Wouldn't it be nice if our teeth would do that. You know.. fall out and nice new ones come back? :)

Dentists would be out of their jobs! No painful extractions! Oh that would be so nice...

I don't think I've ever asked this before, what do you do with your shark teeth? Art/craft projects or just keep them in containers? Either way I'm still jealous.

Okay, this is taking a niche to a new level! ;)

Courtney-I made a shadow box with some of my best ones a few months ago but the rest I keep in a big bowl on my coffee table. Actually they are spread around the house in pretty bowls too.
