The more the kids and I talk about the possibilities the more excited we all get. It's the kind of strange, fun trip I think they'd remember forever so now I really want to make it happen!Korinthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15580286551375780490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8654887465201994138.post-69288423688891226262013-11-06T18:59:12.775-06:002013-11-06T18:59:12.775-06:00Eight?

I guess we'll have to drag Grapes to the zoo next year on our trip to TN. ;o)<br /><br />Miami in winter would be perfect. You all can escape the gloom and not melt into piles of goo from too much heat. I like the sound of that plan. :o)Rachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09317328366288947798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8654887465201994138.post-69538558064500504282013-11-06T06:27:08.411-06:002013-11-06T06:27:08.411-06:00The Knoxville Zoo supposedly has EIGHT!
Yesterd...The Knoxville Zoo supposedly has EIGHT! <br /><br />Yesterday the kids and I totaled up all the figures between here and Miami and realized there are sixty. I've decided it's worth planning a trip! It gets so gloomy here in February. I'm thinking it might be good to plan it out well and escape for a week.Korinthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15580286551375780490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8654887465201994138.post-67317172143438315422013-11-06T06:20:40.939-06:002013-11-06T06:20:40.939-06:00There's a Mold-A-Rama at the Knoxville zoo and...There's a Mold-A-Rama at the Knoxville zoo and I MISSED it?!?!? Never have I been more disappointed! I've been all over that zoo many times and somehow...ARGH!<br /><br />I do so love your Mold-A-Rama adventures! :o)Rachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09317328366288947798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8654887465201994138.post-37481768122543327322013-11-05T09:57:57.868-06:002013-11-05T09:57:57.868-06:00Ooh, I hope we have a chance to make some of those...Ooh, I hope we have a chance to make some of those other dinosaurs! That would make my kids so happy.<br /><br />We're actually headed to the Willis Tower (still the Sears Tower to me) for Quinn's birthday in a couple of weeks! At some point we'll make it to the Museum of Science and Industry, and my brother is starting a research position at the Field Museum soon, so we hope to go there when he can give us the behind the scenes tour.<br /><br />Toledo we plan to hit someday when we're making the trip from Columbus to Detroit. My other brother is moving to Seattle, so we figure at some point when we visit him we can get the ones out there. All those Southern states are going to be hard, but the fun is in getting them ourselves so we can be patient! A couple of well-planned road trips could be a blast. See the country, pick up some cheap molded plastic. Sounds good to me!Korinthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15580286551375780490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8654887465201994138.post-13716904121249642182013-11-05T09:50:58.737-06:002013-11-05T09:50:58.737-06:00My kids are pretty obsessive collectors, too, whic...My kids are pretty obsessive collectors, too, which will be a problem when we run out of machines in the Midwest. But maybe a whirlwind adventure to all the Mold-A-Ramas in Florida would be fun! Not a place I ever planned to go, but why not? I think the closest one to you would be Knoxville Zoo in Tennessee.Korinthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15580286551375780490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8654887465201994138.post-8006091934206381952013-11-05T09:22:22.434-06:002013-11-05T09:22:22.434-06:00I have some extra Hippo's and others from the ...I have some extra Hippo's and others from the Toledo Zoo and Imagination Station in Toledo.

I can't believe I've never heard of the mold a rama thing...if they had them at the smithsonian museums or the historical sights around here my kids would be addicts. They are big collectors and need to have ALL of the pieces in a set...hence the fact that we have EVERY single rescue hero dude down in the basement.Peghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02162890081910497200noreply@blogger.com
