Easter at the Creation(ism) Museum
What better (or stranger) place is there to go on Easter Sunday than Kentucky’s own Creation Museum? Nowhere, of course, especially since the place was pretty empty. Aside from discovering that the universe is only 6,000 years old, we also learned that before all that pesky business with Adam and Eve and the apple (or mango-esque thing with pomegranate-like seeds), animals were vegetarians, plants had no thorns and there were no poisons or venoms. Oh, and apparently we have Noah’s flood to thank for all our oil!
Though I expected to be accosted by security guards for taking photos, we had no trouble whatsoever. Here’s the photographic evidence:
This comes in the middle of a scary alley that’s supposed to represent a non-Bible-centered world (complete with broken windows, graffiti, etc.). Oddly enough, it was the place I felt most comfortable.

Somehow, Beowulf merits an appearance, too …
You’d think this would be the kitschiest thing we did this weekend, but believe me, the roller derby gave it some serious competition. Did I mention that there’s a petting zoo as well? Maybe that pushes it over the top.
