We arrived at the dig Saturday morning after a great breakfast of pancakes, eggs and sausage. Friday night we had buffalo burgers on the grill and a moving message around the campfire by Brother Olivera from Alma 30 -- the evidences or signs for the existence of God. A trip into Utah's back country and to gaze into the skies on a clear night confirms to me the beauty of God's creations.
The trilobite hunt was successful and Pablo claims to have found the largest of any that day in the quarry. That may have to be resolved by a side by side comparison. We did find some large trilobites and I think nearly everyone found their ten fossils for the geology merit badge.
We appreciate the fathers and leaders who went with us and helped make the trip possible. Special thanks to Brother Dennis Vest, Martin Gonzales, John Olivera, Pablo Ramos and our Branch President, Jorge Orozco.
