Provo UT’s Thanksgiving Point is a complex of several museums. Each of them is very nice, and each will get its own diary.
Some photos from a visit to the Museum of Ancient Life.
For those who don't know, I live in a converted campervan and travel around the country, posting photo diaries of places that I visit.
