Following Megan's award program, we drove south to the Weber County Fairgrounds to attend the Gemstone Junction 2010 Show hosted by the Golden Spike Gem and Mineral Society. It was a rockhounder's paradise with the entire building filled with tables of rocks, minerals, gems, fossils, and rockhounding equipment.
Ian chose a flint knife as a souvenir,
with instructions to keep it out of Dallin's reach.
We found out where to go fossil hunting near Kemmerer, WY, and watched
this vendor carefully grinding away the stone from the fossils with a Dremel tool.

The children also got to paint some shale.
And Erin especially loved "Dr. Bones" who had made
these dinosaur skeletons that he wore around entertaining children.
