A few miles down the road from Red Rocks is an area called Dinosaur Ridge. According to all the scientists everywhere, Colorado and much of the Mid-West used to be under an ocean for like ever, which created nice squishy ground for dinosaur tracks and fossils to get stuck in. That's the extent of my knowledge.
There is a trail that winds through the tracks for about a mile or so (it's free!). It is really incredible! I've never seen anything like this up close (except for museums) and now I'm motivated to see other dinosaur stuff around CO. Road trip, anyone?

No outing would be complete without a trip to Sonic, obvs.
Ok, time to bake pumpkin bread and do homework. In that order.
Happy Labor Day, peeps!
