The Crapster

Today was the Red Bull soapbox race in Seattle. I've never seen a soapbox derby before, so this was fun. There were many funny looking cars, but this one was my favorite of them all.

Space and Rocket Center

I spent the long Labor Day weekend in Huntsville, Alabama with my girlfriend Martha. About the only interesting thing to do in this town is visit NASA's Space and Rocket Center. It has a fairly good museum about NASA and in particular the Apollo missions. In the first picture, I'm standing bellow the thrusters of a Saturn I rocket replica.

In this picture, Martha touches the tip of the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird spy plane. See this location in Live Maps.
