Wondered down to Tacoma to take in the Everest Exhibit. Well worth the $7 + $2 for parking. Not a large one, but very interesting. Quite a few retrieved artifacts, some in near new condition, along with numerous video displays including some footage from the '24 expedition. Included were some video interviews with the climbers involved. I would recommend it some rainy day when you can't get outside or decide where to go.. NN up.gif up.gif

It's pretty safe to say that if we take all of man kinds accumulated knowledge, we still don't know everything. So, I hope you understand why I don't believe you know everything. But then again, maybe you do.

I restate for the record, that there is NOTHING NEWBIE about Newt! That said, I must ask where that exibit is located Mr. Newt? I'd like to go when I get back from retreaving my new turbo diesel toyota land cruiser in the next few days! TB

Thanks Joe, but I am a Newbie. Tryin to change that tho. Got a feling it'll take a few more years. Heading South on I-5 start looking for the Brown signs to the Museum. I believe it's the exit that goes to Union Station? just before the Tacoma Dome. Kinda keep hanging to the right most of the time if I remember right. I wasn't driving. NN smile.gif
