We made our first trip to Amherst College's Museum of Natural History (where "Admission is free!"), in the guise of scouting out possible outside-of-the-classroom learning opportunities for the class Heidi will be teaching this spring. An impressive little museum featuring (according to the person who greeted us and gave us the 45-second rundown of the place) the world's largest collection of fossilized dinosaur tracks. Wacky stuff.
Was a bit odd to be walking around downtown Amherst today -- the colleges are not yet in session, so most students haven't yet returned from their holiday breaks; therefore things seemed eerily quiet for a sunny Sunday afternoon.
