My dad took this picture at the Space Center where he works in the VAB building.
This is where each shuttle is Lifted into place by Large Overhead Cranes. Then stacked and they attach the 2 solid rocket motors, and then placed on the Mobil Launch platform.
Look at the 2 men standing below the shuttle being lifted off the floor. Cool!

Power of Social Media
We talk about ROI of social media all the time at work. This video shows some good examples. I can't help but think my kids school needs to do this to help raise money for programs, since it is a Charter School with limited funds

Stephen The Magician
Stephen signed up to perform at a school assembly in December. He wants to do a few magic tricks. I am a little surprised he wants to do this, since he can be so shy. Some reason doing magic in front of 150 people is no big deal.
He has asked me to help him with the outfit and a sign. Below is one of the pictures I may use for a sign to put in front of a small table for his magic show. He plans to practice over the next few weekends and invited a friend to be his assistant. I will keep you posted.

Asheville Vacation
We went to the mountains for 7 full days. Stayed in a nice cabin and had lots of fun! Below are a few pictures of our stay.
Click here to view 4 albums from our Mountain Vacation. Also, click on each picture for a larger view.
Here is a cool picture of Biltmore. I have a few others, this is the best outside shot. I took a picture of the dinning room and a security guy told me to put the camera away. It is a nice shot, even though I was not aware no picture taking was allowed.
I took this pictures right before Chloe took Stephen down in a headlock. The background was an accident but a good one!
This waterfall was right off the highway. Stephen was 3 years old the last time we visited it.
I spent two hours one morning waiting for the sun to come up and find a few good mountain pictures. I took a picture of this church with the clouds in the background. It was ok, but I tinted the picture and think this made it more interesting.
This was taken at Biltmore. We never made it through the gardens. Kids were running around after being so good in the house, but here was a nice shot.
Chimney Rock is a cool place to go, I love this shot. Lots more in the photo gallery.
