Fossil Rim

Had a PTO day at work I needed to use so I thought I would take a trip down to Fossil Rim. It’s a 1700 acre wildlife center that you drive thru and can feed the animals from you car.
They’ve got all kinds of deer, rams, ostrich, zebra, giraffes and many other animals roaming around freely. It took us 4 or 5 hours to go thru the entire thing including about an hour break about half way thru were we ate at the cantina and walked thru the petting zoo. It was a fun day and I would like to do it again sometime. Got some pretty good pictures out of the trip and looked like my niece and nephew and sister had a great time feeding the animals.
When we finished up at the wildlife center we called an audible and stopped at the Glen Rose State Park and walked around the dried up muddy banks that hold the dinosaur foot prints. It’s pretty interesting to see foot prints that are millions of years old that you are actually allowed to touch. Usually this type of stuff is locked up behind glass, but here you can actually stick your foot in the dinosaur prints and see how your own feet compare to a big T-Rex.

And of course if you would like to see more pictures from this set, please check out my Flickr page.
