Bone and Fossil Collectors

Saturday, 2-May-2009 - Veghel - On my way to help Chris, I saw what looked like a human skull displayed with other bones on the sidewalk along the bike path. When I stopped to take a look, I met these bone and fossil collectors. Patrick was the expert. He was very passionate about his hobby, and he had quite a collection including mammoth (humerus), ancient horse (radius), and a pigs skull--no human bones. This really sparked my interest (see links). At the apartment, it was Thijs's turn. He and Chris were finishing laying the floor. They were ready for moving day.
