Launching rockets

Devin and I both had fun building rockets a while ago and we finally got some decent weather which means we had our rocket launch today. We went to a park in Viera with lots of space and set up our launch pad. We launched Devin's rocket first which was a two stage. It had a really awesome flight, especially when the second engine went off, but a not so awesome landing. We think the wadding was packed too tight and it basically was crumpled into the ground. The second rocket was one I built for my interview with Epic. It also had a good flight but we didn't see where it landed. I thought we had lost it but after half an hour of searching we finally found it. The other two rockets also had good flights and Devin caught them before they even had a chance to land. While we were out there we saw sand hill cranes flying by as well as white pelicans which are pretty rare.

After rockets we grabbed lunch and then enjoyed the lovely weather walking around Turkey Creek where we saw squirrels, gar, hard shell turtles, soft shell turtles, and an armadillo.
