Dinosaurs, Spaceships and More: Why Kids and Adults Love the Tellus Science Museum
We discovered the wonders of the Tellus Science Museum in Cartersville, GA, on our very first house hunting trip to Georgia. And we’ve been going back ever since, maintaining our Grandparents-Plus annual membership for free admission for our most-frequent visitors, free show tickets, discounted admission for others and endless fun.
The National Park You Never Heard of - Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument
Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument, in Colorado is just outside of Colorado Springs, Colorado and Cripple Creek, Colorado. It sits in a beautiful grassy mountain valley in central Colorado and is one of the richest and most diverse fossil deposits in the world. Petrified redwood stumps up to 14 feet wide and thousands of fossils of insects and plants reveal the story of a very different, prehistoric Colorado history. A great day trip from Colorado Springs Colorado or Cripple Creek Colorado.
