This is my Brother-in-Law's T-Rex at Holly Hill Dinosaur Haven, Uncasville, CT!

 DSS #75 entry.

He has been building them for years in My Sister's and his back yard across the street from Mohegan Sun.

More images at Dinosaurs.

He had the Protoceratops family in a National Tour of Science Museums starting at the Boston Museum of science back in the late '70s or early '80's. They even came to where I know work, The EcoTarium, in Worcester, MA near the end of the tour.

I believe they let people wander through the area where they are. Donations gratefully excepted!

    Let us be clear these are old and not eligible but they are part of the back story for pyroPrints.com's entry!

    My son would LOVE to see this place. Maybe next time we travel up that way, I'll get in contact with your for information on where to find it!

    I'll have to check it out this summer - It's only an hour away. Not only that, it's near the casino - I need to work on my retirement plan :D
