Dinosaur Ridge

Tyler has been asking to go to Dinosaur Ridge for some time, and Cody seemed excited to go as well, so this morning after breakfast and Kumon we drove to the ridge to explore.

They have quite a few life size dinosaurs outside and a tiny exhibit room inside (not worth the $2 each, but I figure that it was worth paying as it helps maintain the other stuff the kids did like.

As luck would have it, there was also a fire engine there so the boys especially Cody got to check that out as well.

The last time that Siew Gin and I did this trail you could drive on the road, but it seems that 3 or 4 years ago they closed it to traffic so you can now walk up the road and enjoy seeing the Dinosaur stuff.

The boys complained a bit about walking uphill, Tyler more than Cody, and they both got carried for some of the way.

At the very top there is the Dakota ridge trail which you can take and gives a nice view of Red Rocks.  Maybe we will revisit it again in the summer.

Fire Engine alert

That Dinosaur is a big one Daddy !!

Check out those Dinosaur prints
