We have been hosting some fantastic giveaways, and today we are excited to offer another one to a favorite Omaha attraction! The Durham Museum is home to Union Station, wonderful permanent exhibits (my kids love the trains!), and impressive traveling exhibits, including the current one, A T. rex Named Sue!
“Created by Chicago’s Field Museum, A T. rex Named Sue explores how this remarkable creature interacted with its world and what we can learn from studying its bones. Sue is the largest, most complete, best preserved Tyrannosaurus rex in the world.”
