Who would expect to run into a dinosaur at a wood furniture store? Readers Karin and Tegan certainly didn’t. While driving along Hwy 11 in Ontario, Canada they spotted a Tyrannosaurus looming over the wooden chairs at the Woodmill of Muskoka furniture store. Just why the store has the dinosaur on-guard outside isn’t clear, but it certainly seems to attract attention!
