Wow. What an amazing week. I cannot believe I was lucky enough to witness (along with family), the NASA launch for the final Hubble Telescope repairs. Who would have thought; we would have a space station, a telescope capturing the most fabulous images of space we can all engage, and men and women who could enjoy a space walk, just before sleeping within the stars? Well, now that the mission is in place, and all is well, I have been traveling around the web again and came across a....flying car? This is a tad scary. Most people have yet to learn how to operate a vehicle (or choose to drive as though they haven't learned), let alone maneuver aircraft. And, it is not comforting to think of some (with a pilot's license that is) applying mascara, text messaging, or giving crackers to the little one in the back during lift-off and landing. After getting pulled over yesterday, (and a thank you to the kind officer who gave us a much needed break), I am wondering, what kind of speeding tickets will be issued? And, what will the price of insurance look like?

It's a jungle out there.

What else can we look forward to? This afternoon, I am sure I have seen it all. And, after you see the video below, you will have too.

I am on my way to let go of the garden we lost, thanks to spring teasing us, to begin planting a whole new crop. With fingers crossed and hope that the freezing is finally over.
