I made the 200+ mile drive to Borrego Springs, California to see the famous metal sculptures of Ricardo Breceda. To arrive at sunrise, I had to leave home at 3:00 am. Sunrise provides great lighting for photographing these wonderful works of art. It also allowed me to avoid the rush hour traffic. There are 129…

Is your Metal Dinosaur a Cylon?
If you have seen the Universal Studio’s revisioned Battlestar Galactica created by David Eick & Ronald Moore 2004 – 2009, you may have concerns about your metal dinosaurs. If you haven’t yet experienced the series, I highly recommend it. I would give it a PG rating. If you have seen the series, it’s probably time…
LA Zoo – UnExtinct
I made a trip to the Los Angeles Zoo to visit the “DINOSAURS UNEXTINCT” exhibit. It was great! Outside the exhibit is a Spinosaurus enjoying a meal. As you enter you are greeted by a couple of Brachiosaurus. You continue on the path to be entertained by one dinosaur after another. I’ll provide you a…
Fly a Pterosaur at the Natural History Museum Los Angeles
Hurry, the last day is October 2, 2016. The exhibit opened July 3rd. I waited until school was back in session to avoid the crowds. Pterosaurs are considered flying reptiles even though they are believed to have been warm blooded and covered with fur. They were the first animals to fly after insects. The exhibit…
EasTer Rex
We have all heard of the Easter Bunny. Did you know there were Easter Dinosaurs? Really! The EasTer Rex, the EasteRapator, EasTericeratops and many others. For some reason the Bunny is the only Easter animal people seem to remember. If you have been really good you may be lucky enough to be visited by one…

Carnivores in the Kitchen
What’s your Kitchen Style – Cretaceous Contemporary or Jurassic Rustic? You can’t go wrong with either one when the chefs are Metal Dinosaurs. Too many cooks in the Kitchen? Not here! Both Raphael (Raptor) and Dominic (T-Rex) enjoy helping out – from preparing the main course (which they most likely caught), baking cooks or setting…

If you are Simi Valley check out Yosemite Service at 5803 E. Los Angeles Ave. You can fill your tank and get a car wash. As you drive through the car wash you will come across a young Spinosaurus and T-Rex in a heated discussion with an adult Raptor in the background. Keep your hands…
