We didn't take pictures of the typical Fern Glen fossils
found. Several are featured
on the Mississippian fossils of Missouri - Fern
Glen Formation web site.
FYI - This non-working quarry is gated and closed
to the public.

Great pictures! I loved the swimming pool (or is that
Lake Neosho?), but suppose it
would be very expensive to heat. The reptilian fossil (Pic #15) shows remarkable
3D preservation. Doesn’t look like Carl would have much work to do on
that one ;-).
Wish I could have been there or someplace just like
it weather or scenic-wise.
That's obviously the local Geico agent. Dang salesmen are everywhere!
