It has been a very long day
made a bit stressful by nasty storms as we
left Lexington, Kentucky this morning.
We drove through rain all of the way
to the northern border of.Kentucky,
near Cincinnati, OH.
We found our way to the Creation Museum.
We then proceeded to enjoy several hours
of enjoyable visual lessons.
This included the Planetarium Show,
Men in White~a media display in a special effects theatre
and a walk through sets of displays.

Not real people....even though they were quite lifelike. |
We found the building to be quality
and the displays well thought out and
well executed.
Because of Warren's job in theatre
he took his time and examined things
carefully. He was pleased with his findings.
If the people who are responsible could
only know what a compliment that is!
The indoor portion of our day ended
with an hour long seminar by Tim Chaffey
titled "Is Genesis Relevant in Today's World?"
It was so very good.
I am heartbroken when I hear Christians attempt
to find a way to blend Evolution and God's Word
about Creation.
It came crystal clear to me when teaching our
children Science in the elementary years that
if I explained that Genesis One really didn't mean
what it said that the whole foundation for them to
believe anything in the Bible was taken away.
I know people...friends....who honestly work to
fit millions or billions of years into the Biblical timeline
but they just don't fit!!
Tim Chaffey did an excellent job of verbalizing
all of the points I have worked through over the years.
We then headed out of doors to explore the gardens.
It was a beautiful walk.
A few photos from this time of exploration.
A very lovely garden, indeed.
We then came to our hotel for the evening.
I wanted to cry with relief when I saw our rooms.
Yes, rooms.
We are in a suite...for less than $100.
What a great find.
God has blessed us and we are so
very grateful.
I just keep walking around looking
and shaking my head at the difference between
what we left this morning and this wonderful,
and very professional, hotel.
If only we had days to spend here.
But, alas, we must head for home first thing
in the morning.
It will take us all day.
Your thoughts and prayers are always
appreciated when we travel.
Poor Warren has to deal with my
second guessing his driving.
He is a great driver.
I should keep my mouth shut...
if only I could!

Oh my friend, what a wonderful trip you had, me too but tired! I am home on my OWN sofa, will sleep in my OWN bed tonight and enjoy my OWN coffee in the morning! We have been on the road since Wednesday, ball tournaments in Tennessee and North Georgia! Lots of ball, hotels every night, loading and unloading... dah, dah, dah! Storms drenching us etc...
I am thankful to have had a safe trip, got to hold my Grandson and give him a kiss and enjoyed the company of lots of friends!
Have a blessed day dear Becky, trying to get caught up with what everyone has been up to! HUGS!
The museum looked like an awesome place. We want to take Mary to a creation museum. I am so glad I am going to be homeschooling her, so I can teach her the right science:)
So glad your vacation ended so well. I can't wait to go to the Creation Museum in a few months.
Thanks so much for the great shots of the Creation Museum, Becky. My mind is a whirl trying to think of a way I could bring the kids to see this... Noah especially would like it. If we ever do go, you'll have to let me know the name of the hotel you stayed at. I am SO NOT a traveler and staying in a dirty hotel is one of my personal horrors;-} eek!
