Travelling Jones

We travel to Texas tomorrow. Wish us luck. Two 3+ hour flights with two lap children and Jackson. Fortunately Jackson loves flying, and this will be our first daytime foray, so hopefully the twins will fair well. I just want to survive. We travel to visit Jana's grandmother (the first time she will meet any of the kids) and have little plans otherwise. Thus I have spent the past several hours searching "the net" (as the kids are calling it these days) for entertainment options. This search has diverged wildly due to some of the local color. The thread starts with Dinosaur Valley State Park, which is actually quite cool. A warm river passing over fossilized dinosaur footprints. I have been here and am looking forward to taking the kids. Thread then goes to Creastion/Evolution Museum, which purports to have evidence of man walking with dinosaurs, thus proving their coexistence 6000 years ago.

This naturally led to a search on pterosaurs and their possible existence in New Guinea, an entertaining but poorly investigated claim (I think the chupacabra has more backing...maybe they're related????) pressed by many of the same creation evolution folks. Thread transitioning to Dinosaur themed parks with animitronics and finally to Weeki Wachee...



I've actually wanted to visit this place for years (right up there with swimming with manatees). Anyway, keeps your fingers crossed for a good trip.
