In June 1984, having gotten
leave without pay from AES, I put all my things in my truck and, with a
mixture of enthusiasm about my plans, and regret, over having to leave
Gander, headed off for Sudbury, Ontario. The reason for my trip was to
spend six months helping develop the Atmospheric Sciences department at
Sudbury's brand-new science centre, Science
North.
For me, Science North was not only a lesson in organization, but also a place where you were allowed, and even encouraged, to ask questions, and could then try to answer them - a place where you could experience a child's sense of wonder while learning a bit more about the workings of the various components of the environment in which we live. |
