Dinasaur Bones!!!

This was so cool! My uncle and his scout troop and (if I remember right) another scout troop found dinosaur bones in the rocks of southern Utah.


We had a little bit of trouble remembering which red rock cliff the bones are buried in and this is Nana and Lilly looking around to see if we had found the right one.

There is one little piece peaking out.

Stevie is sure this is part of a leg bone. But who knows. This set of bones, as far as I understand, has not actually been reported to anyone yet so Stevie's guess is as good as any ones!

From left to right, Aunt Dorothy, Nana Great, Stevie, Aunt Joni, Lilly, and Nana!

I think Stevie was done taking pictures!!!

I think it is pretty cool!

Where's Stevie? The scenery down in this part of the country is absolutely stunning!!!

Can you tell Aunt Joni used to be a gymnast? She still looks great!!!

We went from exploring these dino bones to looking for cool rocks, shark teeth, and sea shells in what used to be an ocean...millions of years ago. We didn't find any shark teeth but Stevie and Nana Great brought back pockets full of cool rocks! And we found a few sea shells. I on the other hand left the camera in the car for this part of our adventure...dang it!

Just before we left on this trip, Stevie gave Nana Great one of his rocks "because he loves her!"

This is a picture of Stevie playing in a pile of corn like most children play in sand. It works...a corn angle!

Stevie's all time favorite thing in the world is riding on this tractor! I guess that makes him about normal! Ok Ok, I'm his mother and he is far from normal...being the smartest and the best... of course! :)

We always have a good time visiting Nana Great! Stevie is actually quite possessive of what he calls, "my nana great!" and has one of the sweetest bonds with her. The two of them write letters and talk on the phone besides enjoying each other's company. It really is a cool thing! We can't wait to get back down there soon for the next adventure that awaits us!
