July 8, 2013 Museum of the Rockies in Bozeman, Montana

The Museum of the Rockies is wonderful!  Affiliated with Montana State University, it houses the largest collection of dinosaur remains in the United States, possessing the largest Tyrannosaurus skull ever discovered, as well as the thigh bone of a Tyrannosaurus rex that contains soft-tissue remains.   Also part of the museum is the Living History Farm, which was great to tour through.
