Here we are at an exhibit that shows the effect of gravity wells using a table with an uneven surface and funnels around the holes were the balls go:

The highlight of the visit for Tricia was getting to see the Gravitron. It has been here since 1973, and she remembered seeing it back when we lived here in the late 90s:

On our way home, we stopped at Home Depot and picked up a tool box for the bed of a pickup truck. This will allow us to carry gasoline and other things we don’t want in the RV or in the truck itself:

Good Shabbos from Portland, oregon!

300 Days on the road!  Today we drove the 240 or so miles North to Portland, Oregon, where we will be spending Shavuos with the community here:

We’re always thrilled to come back to Kesser!  We will probably be here through Sunday, then continue North towards our summer goal, Alaska.

Shavuos is a two-day holiday, so our next post will be on Friday.  Happy Shavuos from Portland, Oregon!  See the trip map for today’s drive.
