This place was awesome because they literally had a timeline of the history of the Earth. It said that every 9 inches represented 1 million years. And the timeline started way back at the entrance of the place and continued to the actual visitor center. It was REALLY cool. We spent a good 20 minutes just reading the entire timeline. And then we spent another 1/2 hour in the visitor center reading about all of the fossils at this place. Apparently the entire area is great for finding fossils of ancient sea life - YES, sea life. The whole western part of the US used to be submerged in water. It was all very interesting!
And we did some driving throughout the park and ran across some cute deer! It was a mom and her two babies. We ended up seeing the dad deer when we turned around and came back but he was running too fast we couldn't take a picture of him.
Next weekend is going to be KayDee and Tanner's wedding on Saturday and then on Sunday I need to spend all day packing myself up for my trip to Manila, Philippines. Yep, I am definitely going for 2 weeks - from the 4th through 17th. I'm excited but I'm also really nervous too. I'm glad I have a co-worker going with me as we fly out and he will be with me for the first week. On the 2nd week I'll be by myself but there's always a few eBay people out there at any given time, so I will be ok.
But, the reason I brought all of that up is because I figured next weekend I'd be too busy to worry about Halloween Decorations - and I wanted to make sure I got them up before I left - sooooo....I did them all today!! I know I know, I always post my decorations and they usually aren't any different than the previous year, but this year I do have a few new things and I tried to mix things up a bit. So here is my decor:
That's all my updates for now!! I'm planning on taking LOADS of pictures while I'm out in Manila so hopefully I'll have a lot to post when I get back!!
