Rockets






















We made rockets at Grandpa's house over Christmas break. When we got home Brandon made a launcher for us, and the Scouts set off rockets too. Now, we are using the tall skinny water bottles. They go so high they are hard to track on video. I tried, and the video is at the bottom. At the end of the video is a shot of the string that you pull to launch the rockets. The boys have had a lot of fun making and launching rockets. Joshua likes to put a payload of cars or lego guys in his, and the scouts are bringing their improved rockets this week to shoot off again!

That's QUITE the IMPROVEMENT, over what Dad and I did at Scout training. We're still not sure of how your release works, but WOW... They really GOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
