Dinosaur Park







We had seen these dinosaurs from the road last year, so this time we decided to stop in and see them up close.




This place is a combination of dinosaur stuff, petrified wood, and Anasazi culture. They put models of dinosaurs out by the petrified logs.














They had a playground area with climbable models.









The sandbox in the middle of the sandy playground amused us.




This mock bone-finding set-up, complete with brushes, was a nice touch.




The boys posed by the T-rex until it moved. Then we couldn't get them anywhere near it again.




Alan pressed out a memento penny.




The reconstructed house was neat.









The best part, though, was the very friendly guy who broke open our geodes for us. We paid for 5 of them and then he gave Alan another one, because he felt bad that Alan's choice hadn't been as pretty inside as Roger's.
