Mr Ds first day of BMX at Riverside Park - Victoria
Let's see...what are we going to do today? What about the BMX trail someone said they had at the Park? I had never seen it, but it was cool. About 50 feet from the Guadalupe River with a waterfall nearby for a nice water sound, it was great! Devin did so good for his first time on this type of track I was blown away. He picked it up immediately. Wanted to know if we could go back after lunch he had so much fun. It was so... hot, but I don't think he even noticed.

International Space Station - Aug 14 2009 6:01 AM
Woke up at 5:45 AM without an alarm for some reason and knew the Space Shuttle was flying over at 6:01 AM, so I grabbed the tripod and Flip and went out on the driveway. Straight overhead for 3 minutes. The moon is the reference point in the clip.
Didn't try to talk to them on the Ham Radio but would like make contact with them someday in the 3-4 minutes you have as they fly over if you can catch them when they aren't busy.

Riding Down is Easy - 40 sec at 100+ deg
After trying to go up this hill in July I decided it was lot easier to approach it from the sloped side of the hill and go down into the ditch. When I get better I will try to go up it from the hardest side. Cool 40 second downhill ride for a place in the flatlands.
