Max, Becky Mary , and I had brunch in town
Then Max and Becky packed up and headidn to the MN Sceince Museum in St. Paul. Diane and I picked up Mom and met them at the Museam. It was a fantastic museum.. a ton of really well done hands on interactive displays. I got soem great ideas looking at them. They had a great exhibit on medical fake treatments..   I really loved the amount of interactivity  in many of their demos. Like this giant space amn.. you could put your face on theis 2 story high space man..  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then we stumbled on to something magical: It was the last day of a show by Christopher Marley . <\/a><\/p>\n

He collects specimens of animals,  plants and minerals and arranges them as art. It was a little creepy.. but  also very cool. We were vewry happy to catch it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
