I spent many, many days at Burpee as child growing up, I remember the sheer joy I had as I rode in the car across Whitman St bridge. I remember seeing Leroy, Burpee’s mascot, in back of the museum slowly work his way towards the river. I had the chance to show my son this experience and also get to see Jane, the most complete juvenile T. Rex known to date. When I finally got the chance to look at this beast and take in the the full skeleton, I felt like Calvin, from Calvin and Hobbes. I was just engrossed with it. I find myself right now still daydreaming, thinking of what it must have been like to see this reptile roam the lands….

When were you there? The exhibit is really awesome. Lots of inter active things to do.

My family and I made it there about 2 weeks ago, but we have a pass to the Discovery center and usually end up there as well.
