Chicagoland

Nathan and Sue - one of the most important T-Rex fossils ever discovered. This skeleton is the most complete fossil of a T-Rex in known existence. Her actual skull is on the balcony above her because it weighs too much to go with the body on the frame on the main floor. The skull seen is a reconstruction.

The ignorance of Darwinian thought...what do we do with it? Is this something that should be taught exclusively to the school students that we saw in the Field Museum? Or should other creation/coming-to-existence stories also be presented? Let me know what you think.

Chicago, Chicago

Since Erin had never been to Chicago prior to Tuesday, we decided to go there so that she could experience the Chicago magic...

Since we have flight benefits with Frontier Airlines, we decided to take advantage of it. We had a great 32 hours in that toddlin' town.
