We started out the day on the square in Downtown Huntsville for the Nasa on the Square event. My company is working on the new Space Launch System so we had a big role to play. Matthew loved interacting with all of the exhibits!
Next we headed to Southern Thunder! It is a rocket launch hosted by Huntsville Amateur Rocket Association. We drove about an hour or so north of Huntsville and even though I know Paul loves a good back road, with each turn, I thought we were getting more and more lost. Then all of a sudden, we take a turn and there is this field filled with people watching rockets! It. Was. Awesome. I think I was the one most excited about it! We were quite unprepared to be in a big open field in the middle of June. Thankfully, we were taken in by nice family and given shade and water! What a great event!
