Fathers Day Trip - Take Two

Last weekend we celebrated our second Father's Day with a surprise day trip.  I told Bree all about it and in her own words she tried her best to tell her dad where we were going:


 

In case you didn't catch that, we traveled to Marblehead Ohio to visit the Prehistoric Forest. This attraction opened in 1953 and is closing forever this fall. All the dinosaurs in the forest are hand carved from styrofoam blocks then coated in a poly resin material to make them weather resisitant. It sounded like too unique to not travel the hour and 32 minutes (or two hours and seven minutes in real time with a two year old and three potty breaks) to see before closing its doors. To enter the prehistoric forest you walk through a volcano filled with fosils and human remains as well as a waterfall. As you exit the volcano its as if you've stepped back in time...

  1. So.... If you watch Tommy Boy, is this the same Prehistoric Forest they show in the movie? The movie was set in Sandusky which isn't far from Marblehead!
