WeatherFest















Katie and I visited WeatherFest at the Bob Bullock Museum today. Kris stayed home to finish the book "Jurassic Park", which her friend made her read. Some of the stuff there (e.g. spotter training) would have really bored her, so the thing we did most there was visit a hands-on area put together by GirlStart (http://www.girlstart.org/). This included doing a pretend weather forecast, which was fun but challenging. I would not mind having some of the storm-chasing toys on my car. Other pix include Katie under one of the many pretty purple fragrant trees in the area - thanks to the power of the internet I found out they are Texas mountain laurels (http://www.wildflower.org/plants/result.php?id_plant=SOSE3). Here is a pic of the moon, Venus, and Jupiter close in the sky.
