Wyoming Adventure Week, Day 2

On Tuesday, we went to Western Wyoming Community College to see the dinosaur exhibit. School was in, and the kids and I had a great discussion about college. After answering a million questions, I asked them what they wanted to major in in college. This is what they decided: Grace - Marine Biology, Liam - football, Sam - discovering things, Declan - undecided.

Touching a real dinosaur bone.

A cool pendulum in the student center.

We had fun posing with the Easter Island head. (AKA "Dumdum, give me gum-gum.")

We also discovered a creepy room full of taxidermy. I guess there's a couple in Rock Springs who are avid, world-traveling hunters who donated their collection to the college. Sam and Liam loved it here (and wanted pictures with nearly every animal), Grace and I were sad about the animals, and Declan was just plain creeped out.

For me, it brought back this:

Have you read it? Same author as "Life of Pi," very strange, very intense, very thought-provoking. One of those books you think about long after you finish reading it.
