Dinosaurs?

Hi All,

We are in Vernal, Utah (upper-right corner of Utah) and today we visited the National Dinosaur Monument.  Unfortunately, the "quarry building" is currently undergoing a renovation (since 2006) and will reopen in Fall, 2011.  I guess we'll have to come back.   See the photo at the right to see the closest thing to dinosaurs that we came across in our travels today.  We ventured into the Colorado section of "Dinosaurland" and took a somewhat strenuous 2-mile roundtrip hike (at an elevation of 7,500 feet) to a beautiful viewpoint called "Harper's Corner"....spectacular scenery.  We were a bit winded when we finally made it back to the car...but the hike was well worth the effort.   And all that exercise allowed us to eat dessert this evening!

Take care.
