Orton Geological Museum

The beginning of January was the end of our earth science section of Blazer’s science curriculum for this year. To celebrate, Papa Bear joined us for an afternoon at the Orton Geological Museum. It’s located at his Alma Mater OSU in the Oval.

For as small as it was, they certainly packed in lots of cool stuff to look at.

After spending some time in the museum, we decided to walk down to the pond. It really was a beautiful day for January!

On our way home, we decided to keep Racer & Miss C up through nap & lay them down for an earlier bedtime. However, once we got home & settled in, they all had other ideas.

We still got an early bedtime out of all of them though. It was a really fun day!
