Submitted by Ann Strozier on Sun, 10/27/2019 - 1:11pmOn Saturday, September 28, a sizable group of BPS members and guests got together to take advantage of the unseasonably hot weather to visit a favorite creek in Perry County. After a stop at a local burger restaurant that served very tasty biscuits, we caravanned to the site – off-roading a little bit at the end. The dry weather was definitely in our favor there!

The weather was warm but with slightly lower humidity which was much appreciated. After a short drive to the site and a short hike to the gullies, James gathered everyone for an informative talk about the age, formation and fossils in the gullies, as well as some collecting etiquette.

Luckily the weather cleared up in time for collecting in a nearby creek, which was delayed a bit while we had to find the access road under all the kudzu! Yes, it's taking over Alabama!
