Happy Mother's Day!!!

A.C. Gilbert's Discovery Village

Salem, OR 97301

To honor Moms and all the hard work we do, the museum invited mothers to a fun filled day for free. Cha-ching! I actually wasn't able to capitalize on the savings opportunity. I had to work...hard. Pictured is one of my favorite attractions at the museum. I don't recall what it's called but it's some kind of kinetic thermal screen. It detects and traces your body movements in psychedelic colors ala an old Led Zeppelin video.
