Rockets!

Our lovely neighbors, Chris, Carol, Zachary and Zoe, invited us to join them at Wetherby Park last night for what is clearly a favorite pastime for their family - launching rockets. Tom had some fun with our camera's action shot feature and managed to capture some great sequences.

Get ready...

Get set...

Blast off!

Heads up!

Until recently, Chris spent his days working on the Juno project,

so clearly we were in good hands. What a treat!
