Heard Museum

We took advantage of free day at the museum and headed to a museum down the road: the Heard Museum. It was full of interesting things (interesting enough to see one time only).

Looking for Fool's Gold

Shell collection

Mickey Mouse shaped geode

Stephanie & Jared (and Lance was cut off since Dallin took the picture)

Stuffed buffalo (they are sooooo huge!)

Live butterfly exhibit


Look closely: can you believe they have this on display?

The big blue structure on the right is a tunnel showing the internal organs of a dinosaur.

They were setting up this exhibit for the next week. It's an animated dinosaur exhibit. It was a fun family outing that we did September 26th.

How fun and I like all the pictures. The MM geode is ALMOST as good and the geode Joshua got at Petrified Forest.:)
