Fossils! I just went again last week here in Tenn. I found a number of grasses and plant fossils, as well as three good chunks of petrified wood. One had bark that had turned to coal – we ground and polished one end to look for growth rings but couldn't see any. You can grub around with scuba in the rivers and find both fossils and arrowheads. I've met people with buckets full. There are jillions of shells in soft limestone in the springs, but I've never found any bones or anything spectacular. Other cave divers have found whale and other fossils WAY back in some of the underwater spring caves, but I haven't seen any yet. Hey Don Landis, found any neat fossils? JKJ
