Girls Just Wanna Have Fun-Blowing Things UP?

Meg will be eleven years old tomorrow. I know she's getting bigger and growing up but I didn't see this one coming! You may remember that Meg went to the Civil Air Patrol classes at the convention and built rockets. Well, this Saturday she got together with E.H from Civil Air Patrol and went out to shoot rockets.

It started with "Safety First, Safety Last, and Safety Always," but was soon followed by "hmm we don't have a B size engine so let's put a C size engine into the B size rocket." They also launched the largest engine that is legally permissible. (After checking with the airport to make sure that they would not be interfering with any airplanes.)

Meg's eyes were glowing and she hasn't stopped smiling. This lead to Meg and her dad going to the Cloverleaf and purchasing two new rockets this weekend.

I'm sure there will be more to come!
