Fossil Butte, Dinosaur and Home!

A last minute change in driving plans led us to Wyoming, to start our day at Fossil Butte - one of the best parks we visited in our travels.  It was amazingly well done and geared especially for fossil lovers like Boo!  Not only that, but the park rangers were among the best we'd met.

The only thing I wish we could have done was explore the area more - it was terribly hot, which made exploring difficult with Bug.  So, once Boo finished up his ranger badge, we targeted our sights on Dinosaur National Monument, which the ranger said was a pretty easy drive and we should have lots of time to do it to in the same day.

He was right on the drive - it was easy and pretty quick.  There were, however, no restaurants between the two, so we had to eat gas station food - UGH!  All in all though, Dinosaur was fun too!


Now that we were in Colorado, the push home really started - just Colorado and Kansas to go.  We pushed to Kansas in the evening and then, for hours and hours the next day, with this as our primary landscape view:


But we made it, home safe and sound, happy to see Bear and amazed we did it!  Now to start planning our next adventure!
