A memorable Summer
2014-10-07 23:11:00.000 – Jan Berriochoa, Summit Museum Attendant
Fall may have arrived down in the valley, but winter is rapidly approaching here on the summit. With the change in seasons I come to the end of a wonderful season working for the Mount Washington Observatory as a Summit Museum Attendant. I am melancholy about departing the summit. This experience has been educational, exciting, breathtaking, unique and most of all memorable. Being a member/volunteer/staff for the observatory I can only say how spectacular it is and has been.
