Title: Found a dinosaur bone today . . . .

Looking for arrowheads, but only got one broken one.  This mosasaur vertebrae was nice, though - it's in excellent shape and of a good size.

It came from the Sulphur River in NE Texas, not far from where I live.  I actually found the remains of the largest Tylosaurus in North America a few years ago.  SMU, over in Dallas, is curating the skeleton.  It is supposed to be on the Discovery Channel sometime soon.
