Blast-Off!

This weekend was finally the day Andrew had been waiting for: rocket launching day. The conditions were ideal--no wind, a wide open field, and three highly skilled NASA crew. 

Finding the perfect spot. 
 Setting up. 

Ready for launch...except the batteries were dead. So after 7 tries...
 
A wish on a dandelion... 
 And a couple tackles of his sister...
I finally drove to the nearest gas station to get a new battery. This time... 
...a SUCCESS!

 We followed it with an evening bike ride around Gray's Lake. 
And then we called it a day.
