It's me again!
Hey family, friends, neighbors and nuisances!
I have been so busy learning and following and posting tweets on twitter that I have failed to update my blog! BAD SLINKYMAN! I have really enjoyed twitter. It is an interesting insight into peoples day to day lives and a great source for breaking news and trends. I am mainly following celebrities and people from the racing, political and news fields as well as several NASA feeds. It is interesting to see the day to day thoughts of people that we sometimes think of as so very different from ourselves. Some have turned out to be VERY strange and some are very down to earth. Just like one of us!
I have been following the mission of Endeavour STS-127. After a little over a month of delays and 6 launch attempts, she is finally on her way to the International Space Station. Onboard she carries the Japanese outdoor experiment pod called Kibo or Japanese Experiment Module Exposed Facility (JEM EF), and the Kibo Japanese Experiment Logistics Module - Exposed Section (ELM-ES).[4] The exposed facility is a part of Kibo that will allow astronauts to perform science experiments that are exposed to the vacuum of space.
Also have been following the various events centered on the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission to the moon which resulted in the first man to set foot on the moon. Amazing story and made that much more fascinating as I can remeber following the mission when I was a child of 7.
Wow, it has been 12 days since I last blogged here. I cannot seem to remember anything else happenning! hehehe Larra and Benn arrove today from Sinton and will be staying with us for a few weeks. YAY! I am so glad she was able to work out coming again. It was touch and go there for a bit.
