Does this bring back memories? I have fond memories of when the family used to get together once a month to celebrate birthdays and, at one time, the adults used to launch model rockets. The rocket would launch into the sky, reach its maximum altitude, parachute would eject out the top and then came the mad dash of a bazillion kids trampling over anything or anyone, racing to be the one who recovered the rocket. (Note: Bazillion must be an actual word now since spell check didn't pick it up. LOL)
So now I am an adult, or so they say, I thought it would be nice to launch some rockets again. The city is building a new park down the street from us and there is a big field behind it with plenty of open space for launching rockets and sending Matix off to retrieve it, because I'm too lazy to do it.
