So You Think You’re Smart: 150 Fun and Challenging Brain Teasers

I’m always looking for ways to pass the time on the long trip down and found this book. Yes, I do get extremely antsy (is that really a word??) And it just might be the answer to those long hours stuck in the car! The winner gets to choose the next stop!

*And I had better win!

And I thought that I would throw in a must see for the way down. :)

The entire family will enjoy a stop at Big Bone Lick State Park , Kentucky.

“During the Pleistocene age, which occurred during the last great Ice Age, enormous herds of herbivorous animals existed in the vicinity of what is today Big Bone Lick State Park. The area is recognized as the key to understanding the life of the Ice Age on the North American continent over 10,000 years ago. The mammoth and the mastodon were among the animals to visit the Lick. Ancestors of the sloth, bison and horse also frequented the area, which had vegetation and salty earth around the springs that the animals used to supplement their diet. The land was soft and marshy and many of the animals became mired in the bogs and died. ”
