Shark Tooth Hunting

We took a trip to Chesapeake Bay Maryland where you can find 6-20 million year old shark teeth fossils on the beach. We had a blast and even though the air was cold, the water was surprisingly warm.
Sifting through the sand and rock for teeth.

These were our finds.
For Family Night we made the tooth of their choice into a necklace for them. This is Braden's, its an extinct Mako shark tooth.
This is cade's, a Bull shark tooth.

Hey! That I saw on facebook that you posted pictures. I have to take my little boy Spence to that beach. He loves sharks and knows everything about them. That must have been awesome to find all those teeth!
