  • This was a very enjoyable and different kind of fossil hunting adventure here in Florida! Kyle and I set out to explore the banks of a huge canal, eventually making our way to a series of small islands in the Gulf of Mexico that are loaded with fossils and other cool things that wash up. We had a good time seeing the wildlife, finding loads of cool things and enjoying the scenery.

    That Manatee skeleton was an exceptional find! (I hope it wasn't a victim of a power boat...) Great video of a very interesting place!!

    That manatee skeleton was an incredible discovery!! What a wonderful chance to observe the anatomy of fossil creatures that we're used to seeing in isolated parts. Fantastic find!!

    Man, now I'm so homesick... Mullet jumping, dolphins doing the sideroll so they can watch the weird twoleggers in their boat, sawgrass..... I miss Florida. Great video! I could practically smell the Gulf. No matter where I spend my life, part of me always belongs back there.

    I love watching your videos! I grew up in north Florida with dirt roads all around my home and would spend hours walking the roads looking for what I called "sea biscuits" and found them all the time. I learn a lot from y'all and I'm also an avid shark tooth hunter. Thanks for being such fun teachers to anyone that comes across your channel. I'm sure that I would have a blast if I ever got the chance to spend a day artifact hunting with you guys. Stay safe and thanks for all your fabulous videos.

Lol : )Then again other moments it's simply two boys having the time of their lives. If I found a Manatee skeleton, I'd be Super Stoked. I'd take it home, along with some sand and lay it out in the sand (in my back yard) or mount it onto some old weathered wood, to display wherever. So Cool! What a Day you two had. Even the fish were jumping with Joy it seemed. Thank you for letting us tag along, Chris and Kyle.
