Day 89 Tues Apr 10 - nice day, forecast high mid 70’s, (23 C or so)
We got up, ate breakfast & headed out to visit the Museum of Natural History at Thanksgiving Point in Lehi, UT. It is about a 20 minute drive up Hwy 15. We arrived about 10:30 AM. They have three IMAX movies in 3D, “Dinosaurs Alive”, Flying Monsters”, & “Passport to Panagaea”. Panagaea is the name for the giant continent before the present continents split off, about 250 million years ago. The museum is well set up so you can walk around on a route & not miss anything. The focus of the museum is fossils, dinosaurs & other prehistoric land, sea & air animals. We both felt there was a greater variety of different species of dinosaurs than we’ve seen anywhere else. We started in the museum and came out to do a movie then had lunch in their café, (reasonable prices & good food), then back to the museum with breaks to see more movies. We saw all 3. I finished before Sheila by about a half hour only and we finally left for home about 7 PM. Sheila was going to go up to the Elks bar to watch the DwS Results show, but there didn’t seem to be anyone there just before 8 PM so she came back to the RV. She then talked me into going to a “Sizzler” for supper. Back at the RV it’s computer time & planning time for tomorrow’s run.
