We’re heading east now. Along the way we stopped at the Wyoming Dinosaur Center in Thermopolis, WY.
It seems that Wyoming (and Utah and Montana) are places where they’ve made some big dinosaur finds. Meredith is our budding paleontologist, but all the kids liked this little stop. They introduced a lot of the geological history of the region and described older sea animals (did you know an ammonite was one of those little crabby things and not just an obstacle to entering the promised land?). They also had several reconstructed skeletons for the bigger land animals … duck-bills, triceratops, T-rex, etc. We ate lunch in the museum before moving on east.
