Long, Slow Burn

Archery, motorcycling, water rockets, and other useless hobbies

A week ago we had the first launch day for the kids.  You should have seen their faces when they launched the rockets.  Priceless.  No one got hurt and they had loads of fun, and learned a lot.  Here are just a couple of pictures from the day:

The spectators are admiring the first launch You can see the kids and their families showed up for the launch.  This is a picture of the first launch of the day.  You can see how surprised most of them were on how high and how fast the rockets launched.

Layne loads up his rocket onto the launcher.The kids loved getting involved and loved loading their rockets onto the launchers.  Some even custom painted their rocket.

A view of the stream during launch. This is an unusual picture.  It’s hard to capture a rocket during launch but sometimes we get lucky.  Here’s a great picture of the stream of water coming from the rocket on launch.

What a beautiful day.  Only a couple of weeks until the next launch date.
