Creation Museum: Snapshots from the Bible

Here are a few more pictures we took from the Creation Museum.  They have some wonderful dioramas of scenes from the Bible.

I highly recommend that people go and visit this museum.  It is unlike anything else you’ve seen before.

Creation Museum

Here are some additional images that we took of the Creation Museum. The grounds are beautiful and clean.  Every exhibit in the museum is the highest quality possible.

The entrance greets you with a a cool setting of humans fishing next to some dinosaurs.  On the opposite wall, there’s a bronto muching on some leaves. 

Creation Museum: The Flood

These pictures do not do the display at the Creation Museum justice at all.  All of the exhibits are real quality exhibits and the pictures really don’t show the great scale of things.  They have a huge wall that shows what it could have looked like when Noah was building the Ark.  It represents 1% of the total volume of the Ark so it gives you a small sense of scale of how massive the Ark was.

Go see it for yourself.

Kim with the Zorse and Zonkey

At the Creation Museum, they have a Zorse and a Zonkey.  Showing the different variations of animals within their "kinds", AiG’s Creation Museum has a Zorse and a Zonkey.  You guessed it, the Zorse is a cross between a zebra and a horse and the Zonkey is a cross between a zebra and a donkey.  Kim loved them (although the Zonkey nibbled her hand a bit too much).  They are the stars of the new petting zoo that was recently added.

We think the Zonkey also had a little pig dna in him because he was really aggressive going after food…

Return Trip to the Creation Museum

We just returned from another trip to the Creation Museum in Petersburg, KY.  It’s truly one of the coolest places I’ve ever visited.

Creation Museum
Petersburg is out on the middle of nowhere, but it is certainly well worth the trip.

We spent the last two days traveling to the museum, visiting it and then heading back.  I’ll post several images online soon.  In the meantime, check out the information on the museum.

Ethan Praying

Here’s a great video of my little nephew Ethan praying the Lord’s Prayer.

A Good Seasonal Beer

It’s October now, so I thought I would try a good fall seasonal beer.  We stumbled into Jack’s Pumpkin Spice Ale.

Jacl's Pumpkin Spice Ale

It doesn’t have a very strong pumpkin taste – really it has just a sweet hint of pumpkin aftertaste.  I probably wouldn’t drink it as a regular choice, but it’s a good "mix it up" kind of beer.

Michigan City Zoo

So when you think of Indiana, you don’t really think "zoo".  Kim & I were in Michigan City today and thought we’d give their zoo a try.

So while the zoos in Chicago are much larger, we had a fun time at this zoo.  Not having any crowd was good and you could get right up and close to the animals.  Take a look at the pictures and enjoy.

On Vacation in La Porte, In

Why La Porte, In you might ask?  Well… it’s not HOME.

La Porte

The city hall is a pretty magnificent old church.

Michigan City Beach

We spent some time today overlooking the beach in Michigan City.

 While it was too cold to get in the water, we sat on a bluff overlooking the lake.

My New Fish Murray

I’ve had fish in my office for years.  It’s about the only wildlife I ever get to see.  My most recent betta died a month ago, so I bought a new one yesterday.  Bright yellow, this fish appears to be pretty agressive.  Welcome Murray!
