Drop Box

I don't really know what this box is for, but it definitely deserved a picture.

the picture to turn out...there it is, perfect!

La Jolla Cove, Thanksgiving 2011.

Winter Shoes?

Reflections

I like the radial reflections combined with the palm trees. This is
taken from our hotel room in La Jolla (San Diego) during our trip at Thanksgiving.

MCAS Tustin

The remains of MCAS Tustin taking off to the east from John Wayne

Lunar Orbiter

While in San Diego for Thanksgiving, Jacob and I visited the Air and
Space Museum at Balboa Park. They had a special NASA exhibit that
included this lunar orbiter. This is the capsule atop the rocket that
orbits the moon while the lander lands on the moon.

Snow Angels
