Dinosaur Ridge

I purchased a membership to Dinosaur Ridge in an effort to get out there this summer. Well, we are down to the last week so we better get moving. 

It was a pretty nice little place. The membership includes a shuttle tour of the area. They talked about the different eras you could see in the rocks and how you could tell the land used to be under water. Then we got to get out of the bus and touch actual dinosaur bones. This place is full of bones that have never been excavated. It was pretty neat.

They also have an area you can crawl around with dinosaur footprints. 




When we got back from the tour, we walked around the little exhibit hall they had.



They also had a little place where you could excavate dinosaur bones although the boys thought it was more fun to bury their little brother's foot and watch him break out of the pile.




It was a fun little place. We will have to go back on an off school day for the kids.
