I live about 5km from this trilobite site: https://www.amnh.org/research/paleontology/collections/fossil-invertebrate-collection/trilobite-website/trilobite-localities/australian-trilobites-wonders-down-under But after a whole lot were STOLEN using explosives and boats offshore, the site is very locked up and its exact location is secret. However the uni groups that come down give talks to the school kids and they all get to go home with little fossils, so we have a few sub par but IMO awesome specimens

We have a winner!

OK, you win

We used to Trilobite hunt up on the Georgian Bay shores in Ontario. We found tons as kids but never kept them(we didn't know how old they were). Since, they have put a ban on splitting rock/slate to find them. Wish we had kept some of them instead of donating so many to the Provincial Park

This clock was bought by one of my ancestors in London in the 1680s, survived a fire, crossed the Atlantic to Canada in the early 1900s, and crossed back last year to my home in France. It still works😁

When a clock has seen more action than you...

What a beauty!

Wine jar,Mediterranian...Jacques Cousteau once found some when diving that still contained wine. They opened it and drank a glass of Nectar from the Gods....a few minutes later it had turned into a vinegar-ish liquid due to the contact with the air..

Awesome especially if that was before Jesus

I didn't know it was the title I was writing, I thought it was the description 😂
