Ancient horse

 This was a nice end to an otherwise cold and dreary day. It appears to be a heavily mineralized distal end of a horse astragalus. I am always thrilled to find pieces of fossilized horse. This is my 3rd horse find on Mcfaddin Beach and interesting enough the horse and giant sloth have been my only fossilized finds over my 3 weeks of walking this beach.

Ancient Human Remains.

 We find ancient human rains several times during a season of hunting. The sheriff is called and they stop by to pick them up. Them the remains are turned over to an authority who repatriate them to a local tribe.

This post is a bit of a downer

 I have been walking Mcfaddin Beach on the Texas Gufl Shore. The condition of this beach is very disappointing. The amount of garbage that I see on this beach is disgusting. Most appears to have been left by beach goers. I would not visit this beach to enjoy the sun or the sand. I have also seen remnants of dozens of Mylar balloons, thousand of yard of nylon rope amd fishing line, oil filters, discarded tents, etc. There is plastic in almost every square foot of soil.
