Camping at Dinosaur Valley


Here is our little campsite, aaaawww!


This is our RAGING campfire, it was damn near a bonfire, we had to REALLY keep an eye on the kids! But that is what happens when you get two grown men, large amounts of wood and fire accelerant together!


Here is the apatosaurus sculpture, granted, apatosaurus did not roam this area, but what the hell, he was donated to the park in the 70's, I think.


This is T-Rex, he also was not present in this area, but yet again was donated to the park in 1970. However historically inaccurate, the kids thought they were cool!


The beautiful Paluxy River. You can see the rock shelf in the shallows, it is these shelves that you are able to find most of the dinosaur footprints!

Great pics! I'm glad you all had such a good time. Camping with kids definitely has its challenges. Let's all try to go together on a trip sometime this year. Ben has really been wanting to see the monkey man. He asks about him from time to time.
