Adventures in Stuttgart part 2

Our next adventure was to the Kurt Kromer Quarry. My oldest JD, love dinosaurs, this was a dream come true. This place allows you to chisel out fossils. We all had a great time hunting for the fossils.

You just have to pay a small fie and you can dig as long as you like. You also get to keep whatever you find. We now have buckets of fossils. We bought our own hammers, but you can also rent a chisel and hammer there.

This one of the fossils we found.

We ate at the outdoor restaurant. It was very windy. We took the guided tour, but picture of the interior are not aloud. It gave some great history of...

I really like the Cover page I came up with. This year we will be moving and big changes are coming. I felt that a compass was a good reminder to stay the course and believe that God has got it all.
