NC Science Festival

A little over a week ago, I participated in a Science Expo that was one of the culminating events of the North Carolina Science Festival.  It was great fun to bring my traveling lichen show, complete with real lichens, microscopes, and plenty of amazing lichen photos.  I was also sure to engage passersby and answer any questions that they might have about lichen biology and the science of lichenology.  While my table was one of the only 'natural history' type displays, there were all sorts of science demos, hands-on activities, lab tours and talks.  It was a great time!
