On Thursday, July 8, Scott Williams of the
Burpee Museum presented to a crowd of 45 (age ranging from infant to 99!). Scott talked about the Jurassic and Crustaceous periods; what the earth looked like as one continent and as it began to separate; how he is able to find, transport and protect dinosaur bones; and more. Further, Scott shared some of the excitement of digging dinosaurs, telling stories about specific discoveries. He even shared the story of a Hollywood connection! (While on a dig in Utah, a Hollywood film was being shot nearby. Some of the actors and actresses visited the dig site and were so excited about what they saw there that Scott was invited to visit the movie set to talk more about dinosaurs with the movie's cast and crew.) Scott also allowed for plenty of Q&A time. Of course, everyone was curious to inspect the Apatsaurus skull (shown in the photo) and other cool artifacts lent to the library by the Burpee Musuem.
