Exploration Place Trip

Matt and I just got back from the Media Day and Opening Day of Exploration Place’s “Star Wars: Where Science Meets Imagination” exhibit.  We had a great time.  We have several pictures that will be uploaded over the next several days, if not weeks and some special podcasts over the exhibit and the regional 501st, 70th Explorers Garrison.

We start the pictures with the one above which is of course the droids and Princess Leia’s costume from Star Wars: A New Hope.
