Welcome to Dana's blog!

Creation Museum

WOW! What an AWESOME PLACE!!!!!!!!!!! Please understand that I totally LOVED this place! We were there from a little after noon until nearly 5!!!!!!!!

HOWEVER, I really did not feel like they had much information about some things (not in the exhibits. That info was FANTASTIC!). They give you a map and on the back are all of the fees. BUT there is NOTHING about the movies and stuff that they are showing. I could find NO info about what the planetarium was showing. I could find no info about what "Men in White" were (and if it cost money), etc, etc. They seemed to presume that you knew quite a bit about the place. OTOH, the staff ROCKED. SUPER friendly and they definitely go out of their way to help/answer questions. I was just frustrated that this was laid out in black in white, yk? The guide also says that you can walk thru in 2 hours. HOW is beyond me! Maybe they mean just the actual walking part, but there are 2 (free w/admission) movies that are 20 minutes each! Another 6 min one and you have to time these or there is time standing around waiting. So that is my only complaint!LOL

We did kind of freak cuz we bought the planetarium tix and about halfway thru the exhibit, I asked DH for the time, he said 1. WHAT?!?!?! It should've been 2! We both thought KY was on eastern and apparently it's on central (hence the cell phone time!LOL). So I ran to the desk to ask cuz we were going to try ot change ticket times, but she said that they run on eastern. WHEW!LOL

And this place is in the middle of NOWHERE! We got there about 11:30 and decided not to eat there (normal museum food prices FYI) and picked Steak'n'Shake on the GPS. There was NO BUILDINGS where it sent us!LOL But the closest food place is 5ish miles away. So be prepared if you go!LOL It's just frustrating for me cuz I prefer to sample local flavors and DH gives you the option of McD or BK. Not my idea of fun!LOL

So we got home about 6:30 and I got the van vacuumed out and loaded the frozen meat for tomorrow's chili. I heated up the cheesy potato ham potato soup, but there was not enuf for me so I ate the last of the waldorf salad. I think that finishes off the leftovers! WAHOO! I'm now ready to tumble into bed.;)

Hello!

We went back in the fall with our homeschooling group and had a great time. I can`t wait to go back. We left around 8:00 am and it was after 7 or 8 pm before we got home. It was like a 3 hr drive for us but so worth it.

We saw the outside and it will be GREAT this summer! I told the boys that we'd try to come back and we'd have a picnic there! It looked sooooooo pretty, but it was sooooooooooo cold!LOL
