Travel Oddities show

Summary: <br> On this week’s episode, Harley and Josh walk barefoot in the beautiful Dinosaur Valley State Park in Glen Rose, Texas.<br> This oddity starts a few hundred million years ago, takes a detour to the British Isles and ends up in a Druid grove. <br> We had a great interview with John Beckett, author of The Path of Paganism: An Experience-Based Guide to Modern Pagan Practice. On top of being an author, John is a blogger and….oh yeah, he is a DRUID.<br> John explains how one might become a druid or pagan. He also discusses his experience at Dinosaur Valley State Park.<br> In The News: Festival of the Steel Phallus in Kawasaki, Japan. Sorry, we don’t make the news, we just report it.<br> We discuss Glen Rose, TX. For a town of under 3000 residents, there is a surprising amount of fun activities in the area.<br> No Episode of the Travel Oddities Podcast would be complete without a place to grab a bite, and any place that regularly has a two-hour wait, must be great.<br> John Beckett’s info:<br> <a href="http://www.patheos.com/blogs/johnbeckett/2014/07/dinosaur-valley.htm">John’s Blog</a><br> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Patheos/">Patheos on Facebook</a><br> <a href="https://twitter.com/utaoDruid">John’s Twitter</a><br> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/john.beckett.56">John’s Facebook</a><br> <a href="http://www.dentoncuups.org/">Denton CUUPS Site</a><br> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/DentonCuups/">Denton CUUPS on Facebook</a><br> <br> Dinosaur Valley State Park<br> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/dinosaurvalleypark/">Dinosaur Valley Park on Facebook</a><br> <a href="http://tpwd.texas.gov/state-parks/dinosaur-valley">Dinosaur Valley Site</a><br> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dinosaur_Valley_State_Park">Dinosaur Valley State Park Wiki</a><br> <br> Glen Rose<br> <a href="http://www.glenrosetexas.net/164/Convention-Visitors-Bureau">Glen Rose Website</a><br> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/glenrosetx">Glen Rose on Facebook</a><br> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glen_Rose,_Texas">Glen Rose Wiki</a><br> <a href="https://dinosaurworld.com/texas/">Dinosaur World Website</a><br> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/DinosaurWorldTexas">Dinosaur World Facebook</a><br> <a href="http://www.lococoyotegrill.com/">Loco Coyote Grill Website</a><br> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/LocoCoyoteGrill">Loco Coyote Grill on Facebook</a><br> <br> News<br> <a href="http://www.news.com.au/travel/travel-ideas/weird-and-wacky/inside-the-festival-of-the-steel-phallus-in-kawasaki-japan/news-story/1e70c04df0268d3184c7baa68dc2c919">News Story</a><br> Music<br> <a href="http://freemusicarchive.org/music/BIT/">Outro Music by Bit</a><br> <br> Subscribe, Rate &amp; Review – <br> <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/travel-oddities/id1049013947?mt=2">ITunes</a><br> <a href="https://goo.gl/app/playmusic?ibi=com.google.PlayMusic&amp;isi=691797987&amp;ius=googleplaymusic&amp;link=https://play.google.com/music/m/Iye5sylbaqfdg7qee6tearzxcwq?t%3DTravel_Oddities">Google Play</a><br> <a href="http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/travel-oddities">Stitcher</a><br> You can support our efforts anytime you shop on Amazon – <br> <a href="http://amzn.to/2il28Qj">To Shop Amazon for Any and All Items, Just Click Here</a><br> Share us with your friends – <br> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/travelodditiespodcast/">Facebook</a><br> <a href="https://twitter.com/TravelOddPod">Twitter</a><br> You can share original art, clips, show ideas, trip reports or writing a blog entry for our page. <br> <a>Just click here.</a><br> <a href="http://survey.podtrac.com/start-survey.aspx?pubid=dzPtU7Vp6Lt3&amp;ver=short">Fill out our survey!</a><br>
