We had
fun today seeing a couple of bizarre stops. Many of the times the place is
disappointing. You drive miles and then the stop is pretty silly. But we really enjoyed today’s visits. The first was “Backyard
Terrors and Dinosaur Park” in Bluff City Tennessee. It’s free but they have a box for donations. This
guy decided to build a few dinosaurs in his backyard. It grew since then. One of the dinosaurs was in the process of being constructed.
I don’t know how many dinosaurs are here, but it was the
most I’ve seen in any museum (and I’ve seen a lot of dinosaur displays). The dinosaurs look pretty accurate for the
materials plus the owner has added educational information about each dinosaur. The trails just keep going in this park with the dinosaurs in the middle of the trees and bushes. This was just an amazing park, especially since it was just in someone's back yard!
There was a young boy who was going through the park with his mom.
He was petrified. One portion of the park had some sound effects and he was
pretty freaked out by the whole thing.
The second place was a UFO with a couple of aliens in the front
yard along with a rocket across the street. I guess this guy built the display
several years ago. He died in 2011 but his family decided to keep up the
display. Very cool lawn art!!
