Museum Monday: Chasmosaurinae Dinosaur Family
Recently I made my way down to my favorite museum in Denver, The Denver Museum of Nature & Science and stopped in to visit the Paleontology lab found at the end of Prehistoric Journey. I was delighted to see two members of the Chasmosaurinae Dinosaur family being worked on! The first specimen is a no brainer and my all time favorite dinosaur - TRICERATOPS! This one was found in Wyoming. The second skull is from a Kosmoceratops part of the same "family" as Triceratops, but with noticeably different frills. Definitely a treat to see both of them! Museum Monday is an

Souvenir Saturday: German Steiff Triceratops
One souvenir on my checklist from Germany was a real Teddy Bear made by Steiff, one of the first makers of the modern Teddy Bear. I have a few old and antique Teddy Bears, and figured one directly from Germany would be a great addition to the collection. But while in Munich I stopped into a toy store...on Christmas Eve of all days! It was absolute chaos. I dodged and dived between rambunctious children. Just as I was about to give up and turn around I saw the Steiff section and decided to have a look. But I had walked

Museum Monday: Triceratops Horridus at the Smithsonian
In the summer of 2013 I was able to visit many of the wonderful free museums of Washington, DC. One of my favorite was the Natural History museum, mainly because of their large Triceratops fossil. Triceratops are my favorite dinosaur, but before this trip I had never seen the fossils of the body! All the ones I had seen before were the head only. So it was a treat to see this exhibit. Sadly, in 2014 the Fossil Hall is undergoing renovations until 2019...which is a long time away from now. They do have a smaller exhibit elsewhere in the

Museum Monday: Triceratops Skull
There is a little and overlooked museum on the University of Colorado campus called the Museum of Natural History. It is quite small, but has a good section on dinosaurs. Its main piece is a large Triceratops Skull. It even has its own personality and facebook page. Come check it out at the Henderson Building. Triceratops Skull Museum Monday is an every other week series about museum news, objects, and reviews.

Birthday Jurassic Sweets
Today is my birthday! Last year I was celebrating my first week at my job and had the day off (For President's Day) but didn't do anything as my parents and sister were out of town. I also was busy trying to put things into storage so I could sell my condo. So I literally spent my birthday packing away my life. Not sure what this year will hold but I'm excited to find out. I also love triceratops! A few years ago I found the cutest Birthday Triceratops. This year I found an entire set of Dinosaurs as yummy

2013 Year Highlights and 2014 Upcoming Travel Plans
Goodbye 2013! You were a good year. Here are some of the travel highlights: I went to Las Vegas twice for work, and had the opportunity to experience the craziness that is CES first hand. My favorite food experience was learning the history and how to make chocolate in Antigua, Guatemala. There is a 3 way tie for the “I never thought I’d…” Climb to the top of a Mayan Pyramid at Tikal, Guatemala Hike over a mile into the earth and free climb rock formations to see Mayan sacrifices at Actun Tunichil Muknal in Belize.
