things that go bump in the prehistoric night

Last week I tooled around the Field Museum with family, practically family, an acquaintance and a stranger from Australia.

The Pompei exhibit was great. Yes...people died but the jewelry they wore was exquisite. No cameras allowed so I found myself sketching a pair of earrings to duplicate later.

Side note: Did I miss the History channel/Nature channel special on the copulation of dinosaurs? I might have water on the brain lately, but as I stood looking at Sue I couldn't help but wonder...
