April 25th April Outing to Fernbank Science Museum IMAX - Mysteries of the Unseen Worldl.

On April 25th, four stalwart youth from the Warren-Holyfield Boys and Girls Club braved heavy rain to join the outing lead by two volunteers from Atlanta ICO.  The original plan was to hike to the top of Mount Yonah (a trip to take the place of one cancelled last Fall when the mountain was too icy), but heavy thundershowers and a forecast of rain and lightning all day necessitated a change of plan, again.  The trip was changed to the Fernbank Science Museum to see the IMAX film on “Mysteries of the Unseen World” and an exhibit on “Poisons” that featured poisonous plants, snakes and other animals.  Afterwards, the rain had abated and the youth voted for a hike at East Palisades Park among the nearby options.  Everyone had lunch en route to the park, and hiked the rest of the afternoon.  It was interesting to see how high the river was (covering all the rocks near “Devil’s race” where the youth explored on a previous outing), and they found a huge centipede and several small snakes along the trail—making it an exciting day overal
