The Adventure of Navigating with the Stars [S3:E5]
Bear King and Bobo Chico have picked up Loar and Roen whoare vacationing with their family in Black Butte. Wearing their space explorer costumes and helmets, the boys are eager to see the Dee Wright Observatory. They travel up the Old McKenzie Highway (OR 242) high into the Cascade Mountains and reach the lava rock structure at the McKenzie Summit. Since it’s summer, it doesn’t get dark until later in the evening. While Loar knows quite a bit about stars, Bobo Chico asks Bear King to explain how humans and animals use the stars to navigate and about mythology (which Loar rejects). Bear King explains Greek, Norse, and Native American mythology. In the dark, as they climb back to the FUV, Loar leaves the group rudely and gets lost. Roen is very concerned about his lost brother. But Loar ‘finds his way’ using Polaris, the North Star and finally realizes he needs his family and friends.
