Diggin' The Bones at the Port Huron Museum

Over the next month or so kids will be on break from school. It wont be uncommon to claim that they are bored. Many parents will be thinking of things for their children to do that is fun but also educational to break that boredom. For the youngsters (and the oldsters too) that are into dinosaurs, Port Huron Museum's Paleomania exhibit has just the thing for an interesting outing.

Entering the main floor gallery of the Carnegie #Museum in #PortHuron. Join us here throughout this week to check out some of the things on display at their #Paleomania exhibit running now through the end of February. #fossils #discovertheblue #dinosaurs

Starting with some of the first known and discovered living organisms, the exhibit is real life time as to how living beings have evolved through the early years of the planet.

Primitive #reptiles of the #amphibian sort. One of the many fossils you can see at the #PortHuron museum's #Paleomania exhibit.

An early ancestor of the modern day #alligator, the #eryops is thought to be the earliest of true amphibian. This artifact, along with many others, is on display at the #PortHuron Museum's #Paleomania exhibit through February 2017. #discovertheblue

Everything from tiny creatures to big toothed cats will be seen.

Ever leave for work and forget to feed the cat? They get pretty mad about. Just be lucky he isn't a #sabretoothtiger like this one on display at #PortHuron Museum's #Paleomania exhibit. #discovertheblue

Along with a raptor soaring in and looking for prey.

Don't ask it to bust a rhyme. It's a #raptor not a rapper. On display now a #PortHuron museum's #paleomania exhibit. #dinosaur #discovertheblue

And what would be an exhibit that has dinosaurs without a Tyrannosaurus Rex flashing a big smile?

The #TyrannosaurusRex was one of the largest known predators to have walked the earth. This one greets you with a huge smile as you enter #PortHuron museum's main lobby for the #Paleomania exhibit. #dinosaur #discovertheblue

The Blue Water CVB Mannequin Challenge

"Stop" for a moment to check out the Port Huron Area. The Blue Water Area Convention & Visitors Bureau were joined by many friends and associates of the community to take part in the Mannequin Challenge.

We stopped and visited Port Huron attractions Fort Gratiot Lighthouse, The Blue Water Convention Center, Studio 1219 and Thumbcoast Brewing. A fun time was had by all.
