A day at the science center
« on: December 29, 2009, 11:07:22 PM »
Took the kids to the SportsWorks at the Carnegie Science Center today.
Here's a pic of the place, and one of lil' Blaster climbing the rock wall.
They have HUGE ceiling fans in there made by a company called "Big Ass Fans"
check them out at bigassfans.com

It was damn crowded. There was a line snaking up and down the lobby
to buy tickets. We are members which provides express admission privileges!

We had a good time. I wish the food prices weren't so damn high.
I think I'm going to smuggle food in next time.  :-[

Not a chance. If they could turn the safety mech into a winch,
I might consider it.  ;D
