Those are a few I can think of and can tell you little bit about. There's more museums that are pretty cool, but I have the links to their websites on the right hand side of this blog. They can give you some more information. If you love museums and are in the country, check out a few of the museums. They're pretty darn cool.

Righteous man, righteous. I don't know what the boneyard is, but righteous.
It's kinda difficult to explain. Ask Traum, he can explain it better probably.
Alrighty, I might have to. Hmmm...perhaps I should do some blogging on dinos myself...
I'll visit Sue someday. I think she is the most famous dinosaur with a name, I currently can't remember any other... hummmmmmm....
BTW congrats for your 2nd monthversary
I arrived here from Traumador's tomorrow's post. Sound weird saying that I arrived from a place that doesn't exist yet. Blame Google Reader! LOL
