Pudding-stone paradise:)

Earlier today, some of my family went for a walk following a riverbed where we must have seen at least 100 pudding-stones. My nephews and I love finding fossils etc. and pudding-stones seem to be a local speciality.
There were some little tiny ones and some really huge ones three or four times the size of the biggest in the picture below, and we had a lot of fun finding them. They are rather heavy so we only brought a few back with us. One has crystal formations inside, and at least two had ammonites on the outside. We also had to pass through a small tunnel. The boys gave it the title: "Pudding-stone Paradise". We thoroughly enjoyed our time admiring God's Creation. It was quite exciting. :)

Guess what I did this afternoon!








We had a walk up Scout Scar near Kendal and found quite a lot of fossils. I'm always amazed by God's creative genius. My nephew and I in particular, love finding fossils. We came back with probably at least 20 rocks. I really enjoyed it. We found some pretty interesting specimens!!
