My mom volunteers at the Page (Tar Pits) Museum, the bones' new home, so we've heard much about this already. Unfortunately, there isn't much to see at this point. Just blocks of asphalt sitting in crates until volunteers are able to excavate the bones from them. The first few bones are being worked on and can be seen inside the museum.
What is truly amazing is that these finds are going to double the museum's collection. My mom has given our out-of-town guests behind-the-scenes tours of the museum on several occasions, and the amount of bones they had in storage already was mind-boggling.
Here are some photos from their storage area from the visit of Heidi's sister and brother in-law, with nieces and nephews, from last year. There are a number of those aisles you see in the pictures, and each and every one of those trays is filled with bones. And this was before the new discoveries.
