Stopped by and was lucky enough to see Mark building in his workshop. He was super kind and took time out of his day to give me a personal tour. My dog has an Instagram account (the_gryphon_mom) and he even took the time to take pictures with him.

- Natural Bridge, Virginia - Dinosaur Kingdom II Awesomely weird! I guess I slept through history in high school, because I don't remember dinosaurs being involved with the Civil War. There are a few QR codes placed along the trail in the park and when you scan one, an Oscar-worthy YouTube video pops up. There are also interactive exhibits at the beginning and a 10 minutes documentary about the dinosaurs involvement in the war. [Geoff Gingerich, 07/08/2018]Dinosaur Kingdom II:
