Rocket Shoot!

Friday was this year's rocket shoot. We had a beautiful day - just enough clouds in the sky to see the rockets more easily; just enough breeze to keep it interesting but not interfere with the shoot. The man with the hat is Nick; he is a huge help to me every year on rocket shoot day. He keeps the rockets going and I do crowd control.

Getting the first ones set up.

I would say that this girl is a little nervously excited about this-

It's hard to get a rocket shooting in action - Mrs. T. did a good job with her photography.

I caught this girl's rocket barehanded!

The entire group-

It's always a relief to me when rocket day is over. We do this as safely as possible; however, as with most things in life, there is a remote possibility that something can go wrong. So I am always thankful when it goes well and goes smoothly.
