Relaxing Sunday

Today I hung out with my Sweetie-wife for the day. We started the day at the World Famous San Diego Zoo. (While I was off have my Vegas Adventure, she had gotten us new memberships at the Zoo.) Sadly my knees were less than stellar and I could only amble around the Zoo for just over an hour.

Afterwards we shopped, had lunch and then returned home for a relaxing day of just the two of us.

Nothing exciting, but the happy little moments that define a happy life.

More on Vegas

So after the Gun Store I drove over to the Atomic Testing Museum.

This place was very cool. IT took me about 2.5 hours to go through the entire thing and many of the exhibits were very informative. They had mock-ups of shells from both Atomic Annie and A Davie Crockett.

I also learned more of what JFK called for when he called for the USA to send a man to the moon and return him safely to earth. That was point 1 of his vision for space. The very next point was accelerating development of a nuclear rocket.

(chemical rockets are very limited. If you really want to scoot around our solar system, nuclear is the way to go.)

It’s a shame all anyone remembers is the decade to get to the moon.
