Jr Paleontologists April 26, 2008

            Lucky for us.we got the sheep loaded from the winter range and headed back up country. Also luck that we are very close to Dinosaur National Monument! After we got the trucks loaded the kids and I headed for the headquarters at the park. National Junior Ranger Day just happened to be the same day as us shipping. What I didn't realize when I planned the side trip was that the Junior Paleontologist program going on that day was in it's unveiling. I thought that it was something that the park did every year. I knew that the kids would enjoy it and it was worth driving the extra little bit to get there. The three older kids were the 3^rd, 4^th and 5^th ever Junior Paleontologists in the history of the program!!! We were all pretty tickled with that! When we finished at the park we went on into Vernal Utah and visited the dinosaur museums there before heading home. It was a long day for mom and the kids but well worth the time to check it out since we were in the neighborhood.
