Where Science Meets Imagination


Last month I had the privilege of Trooping the Where Science Meets Imagination: Star Wars exhibit in St. Paul Minnesota, with my friend and Garrison mate, Kyle Mulford (ID-8078).

I've got to say I thought this was going to be a little bit of a 'stuffy' event and I wasn't really sure what to expect. But when we got armored-up and walked into the exhibit hall the reaction was most impressive. It was kind of like we were the walking, talking avatars of the legendary artifacts we were surrounded by. It was hard to get more than a few feet without being stopped for multiple pictures, there were many times where we had to cut people off so that we could get where we were going. But the love we got from the crowd was excellent.

The exhibit closed for the last time in this country, for this tour run, last Friday August 23rd. So as a tribute to this great exhibit I thought I'd share some of the pictures with all of my friends here at SWAC. Enjoy.

That was really cool of you to post this so us unfortunate ones could see some of the exhibit. What was with the freaky jive music?!?!?!?!? I know want to watch space balls with the sound off while blaring some techno remix kool and the gang tribute music! (Also who was the music by?)

Sorry, we had some technical issues to overcome but I think we have that solved now so I should be able to get that rolling soon. yoda06.gif

That would be Teresa from Minnesota, she just came down here last week for our big photo shoot as well. Once I get organized I'll share some of those it was a great shoot!
