Denver, CO (TEA Day 10)

Yesterday we went to the Denver Museum of Nature and Science to meet up with Mom’s friend Dawn from graduate school. We all had a great time.

Charlie says that Expedition Health was really cool. There was this thing you walked across all different ways and then you looked at a screen and you saw your stride. It measured how long your stride was. Eddie said that he was 85 for the Peak Pass personalized experience.

Charlie says hi in infrared.

We all thought the best exhibit was the minerals exhibit. It was extremely beautiful and excellent.

This is a cut topaz, one of the largest faceted stones in the world.

Charlie says that the eye agate was very funny.

This is the largest naturally occurring crystal of rhodochrosite in the world.

Charlie says that this one was cool because Marty, Eddie, and I were in totem poles.

Here’s Mr. Chris, Mary, and Lucy ready to go to the American Heritage Girls Father-Daughter Dance.

Eddie and Charlie had pancakes and Marty had some very barbequey bbq brisket. It was great! Charlie says that the lunch was so yummy it filled his tummy right up.
