Key West, Florida

Key West, Florida

Most people want to escape the Texas Heat in the summertime...my time to get out of Texas is Winter...when cedar allergy season hits! So I pack my bags and try to take a nice trip in January and in 2019, we went to Key West!!  I had no intention of fossil hunting until I found out that the whole island is mad up of fossilized Pleistocene Corals and Shells! So my souvenier was.... more rocks.  The Key Largo Limestone formation comprises the Lower Keys.

One of my favorite things in Key West....an 8 foot high Fossil Coral and Shell wall.
