3...2...1...Launch!

A couple of weekends ago (ok...back in May...yes I'm still behind on posts!) we met up with the Marinello's to hang out, check out their awesome new baby and launch some rockets.

We tried the rocket launching thing before but our ignitors/engines failed. But not today!

With two rockets on hand we had:
5 successful launches, 3 good recovery trips and 2 unsuccessful recovery trips.

So if you happen to be roaming around Cary North park keep your eyes open for one silver rocket and the Cosmic Cobra!

In the meantime Brandon will be quickly building the other 2 rockets I got him for his birthday! Then the Cary Rocket Club (that's what we dubbed ourselves) will convene again and have some more fun! In the meantime, here's a video:



Let us know if you want to come out for the next launch! We could always use an extra set of eyes for the recovery trips!
