Sat Feb 2, 2008 Dining with dinosaurs

Tonight was Mary's company Holiday Dinner. We must be celebrating Groundhog Day. The dinner is at the Houston Museum of Natural Science. The social is at the Cockrell Butterfly Center. There's nothing like wearing a suit in a hot humid place. The women were probably having a bad hair day. I'm sure Mary appreciated seeing dung beetles and roaches before dinner. I watched a lone guy wander from exhibit to exhibit and not talking to anyone -- even during dinner.

Dinner was literally dining with the dinosaurs. We sat in the same room as dinosaur skeletons.

There's a new CSI (the original show) exhibit that opened today. It took awhile for us to find it. Replicas of the miniatures used in one crime series were on display. There were even miniature newspapers that you could probably read if you had a magnifying glass. I was disappointed that the miniature of Sarah trapped under the car did not have the leg twitch. There was more but it was closed off. The upper and lower areas were all dark so we'll have to return to see this exhibit.
