Did a quick trip to the Black Rock desert, second one in 2 weeks. Nice sun rise on the playa this morning.

The Nevada rocket society is there for the week. This morning enjoying my morning coffee I heard something that was not normal, it was a rocket going way up. I stopped by and they were happy to tell be about their rockets/group. One guy was explaining that until Friday at 6m they Navy limits there flight to 8,000ft, after that through Sunday its limitless. Pretty interesting hobby, some of the motors cost upwards of $600.00 per shot. Pretty laid back group, they were BBQing ribs this morning at for the evening feast.
They said there will be a lot of people there this weekend and rocket action will be non stop.

From what I heard that was a Female Capt. in the Air Force & the only female qualified to be part of the F-35 demo team. She did a damn good job of flying it.
