Parker Makes the Santa "Nice" List!


Parker jumped for joy when he found out from Santa that all was good with the current year behavior. Never seen anyone so happy with a B+! This is probably the last year to "believe" and it's been very fun to watch.

The Human Body






Ever seen a real body? Well we came pretty close today. From the brochure:

BODY WORLDS Vital World Premiere!

Now Open for a Limited Engagement

BODY WORLDS Vital, in its first-ever showing, celebrates the potential of the human body and the body in motion. Featuring authentic human bodies, the exhibition shows the body in health, distress and disease. These detailed anatomical studies, compositions, and representations allow visitors a penetrating gaze at what lies beneath the skin.

Physician and anatomist Gunther von Hagens' BODY WORLDS exhibitions are the original, precedent-setting public anatomical exhibitions of real human bodies, and the only anatomical exhibits that use donated bodies, willed by donors, for the express purpose of serving BODY WORLDS' mission to educate the public about health and anatomy. The bodies are preserved through a remarkable process called Plastination enabling visitors to learn what lies beneath the skin.
