Bodies

On Friday, Preston and I went to "Bodies The Exhibition" in Las Vegas. For those of you who are unaware of the display, I will briefly explain what we saw there. They had full (preserved) bodies showing muscle, bone, and organ layout as well as individual organs. One room showed head parts, another room showed "guts", and another room showed babies in various developmental stages. Also, there was a room that showed only the veins and arteries the lead to specific organs, such as the heart or kidney, as well as the veins and arteries of the entire human body. They showed a clean, healthy set of lungs and a smoker's lungs, and the difference was astonishing. For that reason, I have decided not to smoke. Anyway, this visit to the exhibit gave Preston and me a greater appreciation for the human body and for its divine creation. We're not going to eat as many chips.
