Petrified Wood

Club member Alan Meltzer presented his extensive collection of agate,
petrified wood and dinosaur bone at the May 2018 membership meeting.
He also set up a field trip on June 9th 2018 of his complete collection.
Lee Miller, club president said the following about the meeting and field trip:
“At the May General meeting, Jennifer Martin, our 2nd Vice-President and program
coordinator, arranged for a presentation by Alan Meltzer who wowed us with
some of his collection of petrified wood from around the world. The pieces
he brought for show and the video of even more, including pictures of dinosaur
bone were an astounding display of gem grade fossils that few of us had
ever seen. Also, just a couple days ago, we were all invited to view some
of his collection of agate, petrified wood and dinosaur bone on display.
Those of us who attended were treated to a collection of museum quality
examples of lapidary treasure that will not be forgotten. Thanks Alan! And a big
“Thank You” to Jennifer for the great work she has done in arranging for the
presentations and field trips that have kept us coming back for more for the last few years!”
