We’ve spent the past six days with visiting family: Jonny’s brother (he was in town for the Tough Mudder-they both finished the race and survived with only minor cuts and bruises) and my sister with two of my nephews. Naturally, we packed every day full and are completely exhausted now, but in that good “it was so worth it” sort of way.
These photos were taken along the bank of the Potomac River in Westmoreland County. (We were on a private stretch of beach, but if you are interested in visiting the area and doing some fossil hunting, try Westmoreland State Park.)
p.s. I will be back later today to announce a little stitch along project that I am hosting with a friend.

We were so hoping to have at least one more really hot day for a trip to the creek before summer’s end, but I don’t know if that is to be. Love your lovely photos!
Looks like a fun time was had by all! Love that little blue hat!
fossil teeth?? that is so cool!
Ginny,
Gorgeous pictures! I love seeing the fossils too. Looks like fun. 🙂
Love, Taryn
Wow, Tough Mudder is intense to say the least! Congrats to both of them.
Beautiful photos! I have missed seeing Trudy in more photos!
So my kids want to know how a shark tooth ended up on the banks of a river. Can you help us out?
The teeth are actually fossils! They wash out of the cliffs.
Here is the direct quote from my kids “Wow! That is pretty amazing actually!”
Thanks so much for the quick response Ginny! How cool!
Beautiful! And someone is very talented at balancing out on the board. We tried to do that in Hawaii last summer and it was hilarious watching each family member crash off in turn!
looks lovely there.
beautiful~
Shark teeth and a bald eagle! How exciting. It looks like your dog loved it just as much as the kids. Looks like you had such a fun time.
That photo of soaking wet Silas is precious!
What beautiful and gorgeous photos! It looks like you all had the best time. Time spent with family is so precious. Looking forward to hearing more about your stitch along.
🙂
