Oh Pilot of the storm who leaves no trace Like thoughts inside a dream Heed the path that led me to that place Yellow desert stream.

A name came up via the recent BBC series on Cook. Bligh, and his having started the shooting on the day Cook was killed.

we went to see this exhibit today. It was well worthwhile. I highly recommend it. It is well set up, informative and educational. You can get a coupon from groupon.com for a buck that will save you $6 off the $11 admission price. Make sure you have enough time to spend at least a while at the model train exhibit which is one of the best I've ever seen. I especially liked that there was a lookout on the hill behind the Lester bridge!

I'm not much for museums, but the Cook exhibit is one I'd like to see.
