New Rocks and meteorites

I hope I labeled all of these right some I know are others I received from a friend and had to remember what they are.

Hurry up nice weather

Okay it's official i have got spring fever I have been buying a few little rocks on eBay even a piece of meteorite. Probably made bad choices being new at this but I'm going crazy I want to go rock hunting. When my rocks arrive I will put some pictures up of them. They should be showing up soon. Talk to you all soon.

Lovers bones found embracing

ROME -- An embrace that has lasted some 5,000 years will go on, if archaeologists are successful.
The bones of a couple are being gently scooped out of the earth on the outskirts of Mantua, Italy.
The pair are believed to be a man and a woman who died young. Archaeologists have hailed the find, saying that double burials from that period are rare and none have been found in such a touching pose.
The burial was unearthed during construction work. The site is 25 miles south of Verona, the setting for Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet," and the discovery has fueled media speculation about prehistoric love.

Bones found

here's some pictures of some of the bones I found on the river

Loch ness relatives discovered?

The bones of an ancient creature that would've looked like the Loch Ness Monster have turned up on an island in the Antarctic.
The fossil skeleton of the baby plesiosaur is one of the most complete of its type ever found and is thought to be the best-articulated fossil skeleton ever recovered from Antarctica. It was in an area covered in volcanic ash, leading researchers to speculate it might've been killed during an eruption
Plesiosaurs lived for millions of years in the southern ocean around Antarctica, which, back then, was warm. Adults could be more than 30 feet long, and the creatures had fins with which they could move through the water much the way penguins do.
The specimen was discovered to be the 5-foot-long skeleton of a long-necked plesiosaur, the foundation said. An adult plesiosaur could reach more than 32 feet in length. Most of the bones of the infant plesiosaur had not developed distinct ends due to the youth of the specimen, said James E. Martin, curator of vertebrate paleontology and coordinator of the paleontology program at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology's Museum of Geology.
He said the animal's stomach area was spectacularly preserved. Stomach ribs span the abdomen, and rather than being long, straight bones like those of most plesiosaurs, these are forked, sometimes into three prongs, he said.
Several small, rounded stomach stones are concentrated within the abdominal cavity, indicating stomach stones were ingested even by juvenile plesiosaurs to help maintain buoyancy or to aid digestion, the release said.
The skeleton is nearly perfectly articulated as it would have been in life, but the skull has eroded away from the body. Extreme weather at the excavation site on Vega Island off the Antarctic Peninsula and lack of field time prevented further exploration for the eroded skull.
