11/11/07 Museum of The Rockies, Bozeman MT










A bit of Rv drama.. sometimes she just doesn't want to get started in the morning, I relate... so she gave us a bit of trouble this morning.. and I learned something new, a way to not flood the engine and a way to resolve it if it does flood. These older models seem to have little idiosyncrasies and are a bit tempermental.. again I relate, so we learn how to work with it.. and we meet nice folks who offer to help when she has issues..

The boys didn't mind more time to play with the kids at the campground, more socialization!! Then off to the Museum of The Rockies... they had a hands on very cool bat exhibit (seems bats are a lot like bees in that they pollinate and are very important in sustaining and helping plants to grow and keep mosquito populations down), an Ansel Adams exhibit (so awesome.. it was fun seeing which places he photographed that we'd been to. We had actually been to most of them.. Yosemite, Glacier, Sequoia, Mohave).

They also had a planetarium and we saw a great overview of the history of man's beliefs about the stars and space.. how ideas are evolving always.. just like in life.. just when we think we know something.. oops.. gotta let that one go too.. it is just easier i've found to know ... that you don't know, can't know, what's happening, what's gonna happen, what you are, what anything is..
yup, that covers it! Get used to not knowing.. and when you are supposed to know.. you will.. until then... ignorance is bliss they say..

I love going to museums and taking the boys, but i must admit it is stressful, they are loud and rowdy and not always in museum mode. I think i had a bit of a headache afterwards.. but damn it we had some culture.. ok crossed that off the list.
