RocketMan


On Saturday, Daniel worked on his Space merit badge. He has always loved building rockets and setting them off. Here is one of the launches on Saturday. To complete the badge, the troop had a NASA astronaut come to the meeting on Monday and give a presentation for the boys and their families. It was very cool!

Paul Potts

Bill and I got to see Paul Potts in concert last night. For those that don't know, Paul Potts is the inner of last year's Britain's got Talent. I wish I had taken photos of the beautiful Tampa Theater. The place was amazing. I can't believe that I have essentially lived in the Tampa Bay area my whole life and I had never stepped foot inside. I understand that it is on the historical register and I hope to take a tour of it in the near future.
Our friends Don and Corrine got tickets to see Paul Potts and invited us to join them. I am so glad they did. This guy is amazing! He voice is beautiful. He is a funny little guy, too. The orchestra was top notch, too. Also, as guests, The Three Graces sang. They are a trio of beautiful girls that are releasing a CD tomorrow. I am still a buzz from my cultural opera night.
Oh, and dinner was super yummy, too. We went to Grillsmith and I had Lemon Feta Chicken! Yum. Bill had a wonderful steak smothered with a wine mushroom sauce.
Bill and I also decided that we need to go out like this more often.
