Two cool things happened on Sunday. First I received notice that I have been given a scholarship from my church!!! Needless to say I was emotional over it, I wish I had the writing skills of several friends, so that I could properly pen my thanks.
Second thing, is just total fun. We got an email months ago letting us know about Mars being closest to earth it will be for the next several hundred years. The peak is mid-August, but being that C's kids were outta here Sunday night, we opted to drive out to the desert and use the eldest's telescope to get a good look. We bbq'd for dinner, then for stalling tactics, we did a fire in the fire bowl, and roasted marshmallows and made s'mores. YUMMERS! At about 9:30pm we loaded cars and headed North/East.. got to our spot, set up the telescope and discovered it has a stability issue. So we ate cookies (second dessert), and farewelled to Tim and our kids, and C and I drove her kids to their dad's.. then home. It was great fun!!!!
