Rough seas and a Giant Sloth

 The seas were rough with a lot of sand thrown up. It covers the clay where I look for bones and artifacts. Fortunately I found a nice fossil Giant sloth rib. The identification is not conclusive but the only possibilities are giant sloth and mammoth. It is the right size and feel for sloth so I think that is the likeliest species. I have also found two other pieces over the past week. 

We failed miserably at fishing because of the strong rip tide but we did manage to net a few mullet which we will use for bait tomorrow. We have been using frozen shad and mullet over the past couple of weeks because the cold weather have kept the mullet deep.
