something top secret
since i've sort of ventured away from posting about my own adventures on the blog the past few weeks (because i've been smack dab in the middle of said adventures mind you!), i thought this would be a great chance to get an announcement out of the way.
my good buddies at prehistoric insanity have asked me to remind you that...
1. time is running out to get in your horned dinosaur entry for the first ART Evolved gallery. details are here. they would like all entries by march. 1st... which is only a few days away!
2. they wanted me to elude to the fact there is a HUGE mega top-secret surprise that they will be coinciding the launch of the gallery with... oops, i guess i didn't elude to it so much as told you. still i wonder what it is?!?
i gotta run and get my submission ready. can't wait to see yours up there!

palaeo challenge results...
well i've just returned from the field (a little later than i'd hoped, but you know how intense discovery can be!).
looking over the challenges, i think it is safe to say that they were challenges. i made them too hard, and for that i applogize. with my brain the size of a peanut i forget that things i know aren't automatically known by others.
though not to worry people of the innerweb. i'll cover the answers of these challenges in my chronicling my fieldwork, as i ran into all these things along the way!
the only challenge where someone was close was challenge 3. for this one professional palaeontologist Dr. Adam Yates was really close considering he knows nothing about alberta's geology. so i'll be contacting him about his prize...
raptor lewis did a great job summarizing lost quarry hunting in his guess for challenge 1, but missed one thing in his list. sadly it was the one correct answer, but he gets a shout out for having paid such close attention to the lost quarry post! because for the most part he only really missed one thing.
anyways thanks for trying, and this is by no means the last time you'll be seeing of these challenges.

Magic Tree House Party
During the February school break we held a Magic Tree House Party. We made flying pterandodons and jester hats; played Wrap-a-Mummy and had a pirate dress-up relay race. It was a lot of fun.
