Fascinating
Jim!
That is
what Spock would have said to Captain Kirk with
raised eye brows after attending our Friends Appreciation night. Who knows, Spock may have
even have smiled. This
year we had a great opportunity to see
the Milwaukee
Museum’s
Planetarium for free.
If you
didn’t make it to our Friends Appreciation night you missed a
rare opportunity. Dave
had arranged with the Director of the Daniel
M. Soref Planetarium at the Milwaukee
Public Museum to
give us a “behind the scenes” tour, a show, and
star talk.
About 30
of us gathered at the museum around 6:30 p.m. where
we had an
opportunity to meet old “Friends” and make new
“Friends”. Especially
myself, I had a chance to meet
many of you who have supported the planetarium through-out the years. As always the
“Friends Appreciation Night” is
really about you! This
night is just a
way for Dave and I to say thank you!
In
particular I enjoy meeting the many young people who take an interest
in
astronomy.
