Year of Memory: Mid 1990s
I moved to the Ann Arbor area in 1960, and my first visit was probably in the mid 1960s. I especially liked the dinosaur area.
I don’t remember the year, but mastodon bones were found by a farmer in his peat bog. This was west of Saline, MI. Dr. Fisher of U-M was doing the dig site. A friend of mine, who had done some dig sites in the Dakotas, was visiting, so we went to the site, met Dr. Fisher and spent some time there. Since then, I have made donations by “purchasing” various bones such as a pterodactyl digit, mastodon rib, vertebrae. etc.
