Our guide would pour water into prints as he talked about them, so we could see them more clearly which was really helpful.
Noah pointing to some petrified dino poop (seriously).
More tracks (I wish that I had written down the names of the dinosaurs and other interesting tid-bits that we were told)...
You can't hear much because of all the wind, but here is a clip of the boys walking around the dinosaur tracks...the best part of the clip is Noah in character as a dinosaur:
Noah & Grandma Mary (Mark's mom).
I thought the long shadows looked really cool too.
I think these were dinosaur eggs.
Since the boys had recently been to the Arizona Museum of Natural History (with several dinosaur fossils) Lincoln kept thinking that we were searching the rocks for dinosaur bones instead of dinosaur tracks. Honestly, as far as Lincoln was concerned we could have probably stopped at any random area on our drive and told him we were looking for dinosaur tracks/bones and he would've had fun with his imagination...
Trying to get a picture of the boys. Lincoln was happy to oblige. Noah not so much.
One last try at a brothers shot. I was really glad we made this pit-stop. It was good to stretch our legs, fun for the kids, and interesting for all of us. I'm not sure when we'll made that trip by car again with young kids, but if we do then I say that we stop again!
I honestly have to recollection where we were when we pulled over here, but it was just too much fun not to pull over and let the boys take a look...
