One neat thing that I got to do through Sea Camp was going to the Neutral Buoyancy Lab associated with NASA. This is where the astronauts train for their space walks. It is the closest they get to a zero gravity here on earth.
The NBL is home to the world's largest indoor pool. Each astronaut has a team of 4 divers assigned to them that help supervise during their 6 hour session.
Here I am down in the lobby! Exciting stuff, I know ;) Last Friday Beau and I went to support Em at her art show in Houston: Salon des Refuses: Artwork Rejected from the BIG Show. She ended up winning the people's choice award that night. Below is us in front of her piece.
Life is going well, despite the heat that is summer in Texas. Fortunately Galveston was one of the only places that held a fireworks show this year due to the drought and burn bans in effect.
GISD went really well this year and ended last week. I'm enjoying a week off before going back to work for Sea Camp. Next week is the Texas City day camp. My interview went as well as I could hope. When I know more, I'll let y'all know.
