A few hardy core volunteers checked out a couple of houses that may be suitable for the 2011 dig (in Wonthaggi and in Harmer's Haven). Those who were there have, of course already determined which rooms they would sleep in.
It's going to be tough to find a house that will sleep enough people (8 inside is probably a minimum) and has room for tents and rock-breaking areas. And we really want sewerage and town water connected. Any digger who has a good idea about where we could find this sort of place please get in contact with Lesley or myself (or leave a comment on the blog and we'll contact you).
Museum Victoria and Monash University have conducted “Dinosaur Dreaming” digs since 1995. Originally at the Flat Rocks site outside Inverloch, Victoria, it has evolved to include localities along the Bass and Otway Coasts. Since 2008 this blog has shared images and stories of crew taking part in excavations, fossil bones recovered, and fossilly things we get up to between digs. The most recent dig took place at Twin Reefs for 3 weeks in February 2025.
