On April 17th, eight graders from Spanish Fork Junior High School went on a field trip to Thanksgiving Point in Lehi. They toured the Museum of Ancient Life. “That’s crazy!” some of the students stated as they walked under huge fossilized dinosaurs towering over them. “How would you like to go fishing for that?” as one boy pointed to a huge boney fossilized fish with large protruding teeth behind a glass case. The students spent about an hour and a half touring the museum and then another half hour looking at the new Tinkering exhibit.
