While exploring a number of National Parks in the Western US, I found [this wall poster](http://www.fossilmall.com/EDCOPE_Enterprises/nature/Correlated_History_of_Earth/CorrelatedHistoryofEarth.htm) at either Dinosaur National Monument or Hagerman Fossil Beds NM. I was looking at it in wonder when someone else walked up next to me and say “Wow! That is awesome.” I said "Yeah, it is really neat. I really want one, but it is $20 for a poster. Kind of expensive. ☹ " “Too expensive for me. But it is neat,” he replied and walked off. He was right, too much, even if it was going to the NP store.

So now I need to find a poster frame that will hold a 28x38 laminated poster. 😃
