I'm on a mission

Hampton Inn - Richland, WA
On the banks of the Columbia river
Washington State, East of the Cascades

64 km from Oregon, 120 km from Idaho
352 km from Seattle

30 minutes from Hanford Site

-3.8°C with light snowcover, crunchy ice

I'm on some kind of mission here, but I'm not sure what entirely. They gave me plane tickets to Pasco. A rental car was ready at the airport. I met Adrian at the hotel for dinner. He'd arrived an hour before.

In the morning we'll drive out to LIGO's Hanford Observatory and I'll find out for real why I'm here.
