My Seussical Life for 2004 February 21

Dave is in Wichita, Kansas attending his first academic conference. I drove him out Friday morning (2.5 hours), and after I dropped Dave off, I took the boys to the Exploration Place, which is in downtown Wichita the Arkansas River. Some favorite attractions were: the Dr. Seuss exhibit, Atticus dressing up as a leopard and growling at other children, digging faux fossils out of chalky plaster while Samuel ate dirt, the live scorpion and live prarie dog exhibits (separate exhibits, of course), and the microscopes with slides of bacterias and such.
