Day 8

Day 8
Drove to Glenrose, Texas, set up DAV and then went to Fossil Rim Wildlife Preserve. While setting up Dav I found several fossilized sea shells among the gravel of the park which set Stevies, Tina and myself off on a quest around the campsite for fossils. We found shirt loads worth! Fossilized sea-shells, petrified wood (although I'm not sure what it was so scared about), fossilized bones, claw, and a big sharp fossilized tooth! Wow! And that was just in our campsite.  Tomorrow we will head to the dinosaur park to see all the Dino tracks in the local riverbed. In the meantime we drove to the wildlife preserve. It was one of the kinds that you drive slowly through and the animals all come up to the vehicle and peek their heads in the windows.  The kiddos were laughing and dodging zebra tongues and emu beaks, taking hundreds of pictures! What a fun day!
