I’m happy to announce that I have just completed the new visitor’s map for Dinosaur World in Glen Rose, Texas. Dinosaur World is a great attraction and I’ve written many articles and made some videos about my work with them on other projects. Be sure and visit their web site at http://www.dinoworld.net and visit the park in person.

| Go to Paluxy River, Glen Rose, Texas – Dinosaur Valley State Park Site 4 |
I recently visited Dinosaur Valley State Park in Glen Rose, Texas. It is a 1524.72-acre, scenic park set astride the Paluxy River. 113 million years ago the Paluxy River was part of the shorelines of an ancient sea. Apparently a violent storm blew across the shoreline and created a series of sand and lime-laden mudflats then a bunch of dinosaurs proceeded to walk through it and then the tracks were gently buried with a somewhat different sediment. Their footprints are now fossilized into the rock of the riverbed. The fossilized tracks in the Paluxy belong to two main types: many are three-toed, sharp-clawed prints made by two-legged meat-eating dinosaurs called theropods and long-necked plant-eating dinosaurs known as sauropods.

| Go to Zapruder’s Perch, Dealey Plaza, Dallas, Texas |

The photo above is taken from the same location as the famous, 26.6 second, “Zapruder film” most of us associate with the assassination. Now you can look all around from the same vantage point as Zapruder could on that day. (more…)
