Sunday was our last full day in Colorado. After going to worship services with Mike and Martha and brunch at The Corner Bakery, we headed up to Denver and toured Dinosaur Ridge. It was a really neat presentation of dozen of dinosaur bones and footprints.
Here is Rylan laying by a brontosaurus skull replica. That is one big head!
The darker part is stegosaurus bone. This is the first place they found stegosaurus bones in CO. There were so many bones that they left several exposed for tourists to see.
Our family on the Ridge!
This is a brontosaurus footprint. The ground was muddy and a brontosaurus ran across it leaving the indentions of its feet. It was pretty cool to see the toe-prints too!
This one area has oodles of iguanadon and ostriosaurus footprints. Once a month they charcoal them so that tourists can see them better. There is one small corner where they let the kids climb...
Ever wonder how your foot compares to an igunadon's foot? Here are our feet!
The family by the tracks...
Then we drove to the famous Red Rock amphitheater. It was across the way and oh so pretty! The red-ness of the rocks is not done justice with these photos!
Happy 12th Anniversary sweetie!
The next morning we were off to the airport, but not before one last photo with Mike and Martha!
Thanks for letting us stay with you! The trip was great and the visiting even better!
