Parting is such sweet sorrow...

After 43 years, the Exploratorium is temporarily closing to move to their new home at Piers 15/17 on the waterfront.

What makes it so sad is that 33 years ago, a shy and awkard kid got his first job there. Meeting Frank Oppenheimer was a thrill and working for perhaps the best boss ever, Darlene, is more than any kid can hope for as their 1st real paying job.  Friends made and seeing old friends was touching.  To see it move away is emotional.

Take time and pay them a visit at their new home in April.  You be surprised how much fun and how much science you will learn.
