We usually only go in there for the air conditioning since our daughter is now grown. I think I would miss the "Where's the Fire" exhibit the most, because it is a great and non-scary way to teach the kids about what to do in the event of a house fire. I wonder if they may make that area another meet and greet?

I still think that they need to turn this area into "Stark Expo" but I look forward to whatever may be coming next!
