My family has always had a proclivity to look for stuff.  Well, not my Mother, but all the rest of us do.  A few weeks ago, Duhneice, The Sister along with the Terrorist and the Ape went over to Murfreesboro, AR to the Crater of Diamonds State Park.  Unfortunately they didn't have much luck, but they gave it a shot and had a good time.  We've also spent quite a number of hours looking for arrowheads (or as my nephew once referred to them, 'easterheads') and other relics.  Something I would like to do and I'm sure they would as well, is to go over to Frankstown, MS and search Twenty Mile creek for sharks teeth.  It's free and pretty much a sure thing.
    Anyway, one thing I've done since I was a kid is look for fossils in the gravel drive.  Seems like you can always find something if you look hard enough.  Generally you find a lot of crinoids, or plant stems.  When I was a kid I thought they were neckbones.  As far as identifying any that I find, I generally ask the Sister and she'll recognize them.  "Oh yeah, we had one of those growing outside the cave."  All the ones below came from about thirty minutes of looking out in the driveway.


CRINOIDS


This gives you an idea of how small they are. 


They come in wads, too.


Interesting little imprint.



Crinoid.


Gastropod, perhaps?


Coral


Coral, I think.

Not a fossil, but still interesting.
