Prairie Dog Town

 

Have you ever seen a Prairie Dog Town?  I got to see a couple when I visited North Dakota.

USS Drum

 

The USS Drum is a submarine I got to visit.  Submarines are not made for big people.

USS Alabama

I'm on the deck of the USS Alabama.  It's a battleship I got to tour while visiting Mobile, Alabama.  Very cool.

African Animals

Today's post is about a trip I took to Africa about ten years ago.

If you want to color one (or more) of the Big 5, click on the animal to download a coloring page:

Lego Liberty Bell

This Liberty Bell is made out of Legos.  So cool!  Do you know what city I'm in?

Where Was I?

Can you figure out where I was this weekend?

Big Bend National Park

One of the things I did this summer was visit Big Bend National Park in Texas.  What did you do this summer?

Summer Vacation

My summer vacation got off to a great start at the Houston Zoo.  The cheetah above is not real, but this one is . . .

Memorial Day Weekend

I visited the Statue of Liberty and saw a Broadway play this weekend.  What did you do?

Geppi's Entertainment Museum

I visited an amazing museum in Baltimore.  It is called Geppi's.  They had a lot of exhibits on comicbooks and superheroes, including my favorite - Batman.

Did you know this is what the original Iron Man looked like?

Babe Ruth Museum

One of the things I did this vacation was visit the Babe Ruth Museum in Baltimore.  Do you know who he is?  I had to follow the baseballs from Camden Yards (where the Orioles play).

Then I got to see really cool exhibits like this one.

What did you do this vacation?

Mets Game

One of my favorite trips this summer was to New York City.  I got to watch the Mets play a game.  Do you have a favorite baseball team?  Mine is the Yankees.

Rocket Garden

This is a rocket garden at the Kennedy Space Center.  It's a garden, but instead of flowers there are real rockets that flew in space.  Isn't that cool?

Sue the T. rex

This is Sue, the world's largest, most complete and best preserved T. rex specimen.

Size:  42 feet

Weight:  7 tons

Discovered:  South Dakota

Fun Fact:  No one knows if it's a boy or a girl.  It's named Sue because a woman, named Sue, discovered it.

Cool Store

This was a very cool store.  It had Star Wars, superheros, Ninja Turtles and so much more.

Where Am I?

Yes, I'm in an M&M store, but do you know where?  There's a BIG hint over my left shoulder.

The Lego Store - Chicago

There was a life-size Storm Trooper (and light saber) at the Lego Store in Chicago.  It was very cool.  Which Star Wars character would you make with Legos?  I would make R2-D2.

Cool Water Fountain

I saw this water fountain at the Kansas City Zoo.  I wish we had it on our playground.  I LOVE LIONS!!!

Raptor

I got to see a raptor in Philadelphia.  It's not real, but it's cool.  Do you have a favorite dinosaur?

Basketball Is Coming Soon

Basketball season starts soon.  Do you play basketball?  This is a picture of me and a statue of Magic Johnson in Los Angeles.
