Finn and I had a fabulous time yesterday with our friends Dena and Tatum at the Rice NW Museum of Rocks and Minerals in Washington County.

Located off Highway 26 in Hillsboro, OR, the Rice Museum is home to thousands of meteorites, thunder eggs, petrified wood, gemstones and more.

Our favorites? Marveling at the colorful phosphorescent stones in the Rainbow Gallery and digging for agates in the rock pile outside.
