Mountain Biking


Well yesterday we went mountain biking in Rose Valley. It was an ok thing to do, we got hurt a lot, you know, scraped up and stuff, but it was fun. On the way back we took a "shortcut" that was actually a longcut and it took a long time to get home. When we did get home, we were all very tired out. Today I am going golfing, and tomorrow is my last day here before camp. I go to a camp that is like a week long soon, and I don't really want to go, but my friends are convincing me that it will be fun. Yeah, whatever...Haha


So the shuttle landed a few days ago. I'm sure that anyone reading this knows that it did, but I thought I'd post it anyway. What happened that day was that the weather over florida didn't look too favorable for the landing, so it was just totally waived off, both times. The second option was Edwards Air Force Base in California. The weather looked nice there, so NASA took the opportunity to land at 8:12 a.m. EDT. This of course was 5:12 a.m. PDT which explains the darkness in the photo above. The landing was successful and the crew walked off the shuttle about an hour later.


This is just a picture that NASA released of the shuttle being docked up so that the crew could walk off. I'm not sure what time it was taken at, but it looks about 6 or 7 a.m. PDT.
