I've started smoking again after 6 years of quitting (not counting one brief relapse that only last a few weeks).

He chose to go because we took him last year (he's been crazy about dinosaurs since he was three years old).

Last year it had a dinosaur claw, a tooth and a sample of dinosaur skin he had to match up to one on display. He had a great time solving the mystery and even remembered which dinosaur it ended up being. Last year's trip was wonderful. We walked right in,
