Tender Mercies

I am a bread snob. And I was thrilled when Panera opened just two blocks from my gym. They have been in business for just two weeks and I have already stopped there 4 times. I love it!

Successful Failure

Richard and I drove to Florida to see the space ship launch.

I learned all sorts of neat things. Like NASA prefers to call the shuttles "orbiters" instead of space ships. And that a launch stirs up the alligators and snakes for 4,000 feet around because the vibrations make them aggressive.

We were reminded just how concerned NASA is with safety.

Like it was said in Apollo 13, our trip was a successful failure because while we didn't accomplish our main goal, we had a lot of fun, learned cool things, and made it home alive.
