What a great story you shared about the dinosaur. It does get old, sharing 'snow' stories, in the winter--particularly when you always have snow! For me, it's more of a novelty because VA doesn't usually get these kinds of storms, so I'll probably do another post after this next storm hits today/tomorrow! I'm glad to visit you again...it had been too long since I'd been over:-) JanJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12844013803699228989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1641867746157798839.post-75568156046690475332010-02-07T07:20:02.734-06:002010-02-07T07:20:02.734-06:00Amazing story.

I'm sure it's a prize both you and your feathered friends will appreciate and enjoy for a long time.<br /><br />I didn't know about Jane - looks like another neat place to visit in Rockford! Your town's the perfect 1/2-way rest stop area on the way to my mom's place. The museum will definitely be on my list of places to visit, likely when my grandson comes to great-grandma's with me.

I lived in Wyoming for a while and there were excavations there too. They are always fascinating. My niece thinks she wants to be a paleontologist because of visiting a dig. You never know how a child is going to be inspired.

That is how I found this post-I almost missed it. First of all that bird feeder went to the right person. It is lovely and what a joy for you to win it. Second of all how exciting is that Jane was discovered in your neck of the woods? How interesting the story behind her too.tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17415302577518111227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1641867746157798839.post-75236048971128164302010-02-04T00:12:10.413-06:002010-02-04T00:12:10.413-06:00Hi Marnie~~ Jane is awesome.

Kids do love dinosaurs, so I'm not surprised it's a popular attraction at the museum.<br /><br />I agree with you completely about February. It's hard to read some of the southern bloggers or even those in the UK who are seeing shoots of spring bulbs or buds on some shrubs. I don't excited about looking in the garden until March. And even then we could have a blizzard or an ice storm. That's why I read a lot in February:)Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1641867746157798839.post-77344904974847639242010-02-03T18:36:56.838-06:002010-02-03T18:36:56.838-06:00Congrats on the win Marnie!
