Parents weekend...
at PSU...
We had a great weekend visiting Jennifer up in State College, and had a lot of fun spending time with Jen.
My personal cool event of the weekend was a visit to the Breazeale Nuclear Reactor during their open house!!!
After signing in, a brief classroom presentation covered some general infromation and day to day issues regarding nuclear radiation. After that it was off to the reactor bay... I got to look down through the water at the working pile. It was glowing with a really diferent blue light. Very cool!!!
The students who were escorting us were very knowledgeable and willing to answer any questions the visitors had, even all my inane ones...
Especially cool was the fact that I got to bore the girls for the rest of the weekend with a variety of interesting facts about my visit...
