  • End date: 11/17/2023

Description:

This is an ExploraTalk presentation: Marli Miller is a senior instructor at UO in the Dept. of Earth Sciences. She always makes the science of geology understandable and fascinating as she did when she spoke at the Lodge most recently. Her 2021 book, "Oregon Rocks!', describes Oregon's wonderful geology. Since then, her online posts with photos demonstrate what a poetic and accomplished writer and photographer she is. Join us for the potluck at 6:30 PM and/or come to hear and see her presentation at 7:30 PM as she will unearth our NW land features in a compelling way. You will leave the Lodge eager for your next road trip!
