The Museum of the Rockies (Dec 31st)

So, one thing that Montana, particularly Bozeman is noted for, aside from the mountains and skiing, is our research of dinosaurs & discovery of one of the largest "intact" T-Rex's. We have a Museum that is dedicated primarily to displaying the research/bones of all the discoveries. We decided to check it out. Man, a lot has changed since I was last there 10 years ago, but then again, a lot has remained the same. John got a kick out of touching, and feeling, and seeing everything. I found out that the mom of one of my high school friends was super involved in the research of dinosaurs, and was published nationwide. It was a great relaxing way to spend the day. Here are some pictures from our time:
