The Peoria Gem/ Rock and Fossil show was held at the Ramada Hotel on August 22 and 23, 2009. These are some of the photos I took while attending the show. Thought you might enjoy seeing these. Lots of interesting specimens on display (many for sale).

While in the Missoula, MT area, I had the opportunity to look for fossils in the mid-Tertiary lake beds near Drummond, MT. Lots of fine grained shales (many readily split). Ben found a great fossil Hymenoptera. I found a very well preserved leaf along with numerous plant fragments and some midges. The sediments are along a large roadcut north of Drummond. Lots of climbing and splitting of shape to find these specimens.
