Halloween

I'd like to officially thank Nasa for the spare parts that were "procured" from their dumpster. As you see in the photo Dad (AKA crazy weird alien dude) and I were able to build a fully functioning jet pack trainer. Note the tandem configuration. This unit, having been the "qual" unit, will soon be retired, and we will start work on the flight unit. We look forward to next year when I get to take my first solo flight. The flight plan has been approved between San Anselmo and Pasadena. I will fly to my friend Ellie's house since her Dad and my Dad are space nerds together.

Halloween was pretty cool. We marched in the Fairfax Halloween parade where everyone was pretty excited about my rocket pack - calling me Rocket Baby! Sadly I fell asleep and completely missed the whole trick or treat experience.

Next year Dad and I will work more on the space suits ... the tube socks were a last ditch effort on Mom's part. She was really at a loss as to what rocket babies actually wear. Duh mom!!
