I love dinosaurs! I have loved them since I knew what they were. I drew pictures of them all the time when I was a little girl. I had some little plastic ones, too, you know, the kind that come in a bag or tub! I checked all the dino books out of the library at school and I read and read about them and then I grew up, like you do, and kinda forgot about them.

This guy named Michael Crichton wrote a book called Jurassic Park and I was thrilled. The whole idea was wonderful! I remember telling hubby that the book would make a great movie... boy, did it! We went to a crowded theater with Sara when she 5 and sat in the back - the only seats available. When Alan Grant saw the dinosaurs, I felt chills. It was so wonderful! I enjoyed every single second of that one and all the sequels... because DINOSAURS!!!

This scene:


I remember when Sue was found and it made the news - I was in the hospital. Then nothing about her for years and then the actual-sized replica toured different nature centers and such... and I saw her. Wow!!! If you get a chance, see her or go to the Field Museum in Chicago and see the real fossil one! She is a 90%+ complete fossilized t-rex. She was found by a woman named Sue Hendrickson in South Dakota in 1990.

Sue:


I LOVE DINOSAURS!!!
