Did I mention Dinosaurs

Just a few quick facts and pictures of the big guys who use to roam this area long before we arrived. The 80 mile radius around Vernal Utah has the largest collection of Dinosaur remains in the world. It is truly dinosaur country. We went to several museums before John got "dinoed out", so I didn't see the national monument or the Dino digs but it was really neat being able to touch the shell of a large turtle that lived more than 45 million years ago.






In a few days we leave Utah and head for Wyoming. This will be our last stop before going into Yellowstone. The temperature in that area is still on the cool side with highs in the 60's and lows in the 30's. They have also been having an unusual amount of rain. Let's hope it's over by the time we get there.
