January 2025 - Starship Test Flight 7 - Things go Boom!

Posted: January 17, 2025

Test Flight 7 occurred today for Starship and had mixed results. This was the first launch with an upgraded starship and was planned to pattern after the previous flight for test flight 6. Launch and assent went fine, and the booster was able to return to the launch pad and was captured with the tongs. The starship though experience issues in orbit and they lost control contact with it over the indian ocean. It ended up burning up in the atmosphere with an uncontrolled re-entry. Made for some interesting videos of the burn up over the Turks islands. SpaceX has some things to fix it looks like with this new model.

 

 

January 2025 - A Day in Alexandria with Jalen and Jacquelyn

Posted: January 17, 2025
Today we got up real early and headed for Alexandria to take Haley to her infusion appoitment. The sunrise going over the bridge in Lake Charles was spectacular, and the drive north was pretty easy. We dropped Haley off at the hospital in Alexandria and took Jalen to McDonalds for breakfast. Afterwards, we headed over to the Alexandria Zoo to kiil some time while Haley had her procedure. it was a little chilly this morning so we kept moving around the park at a brisk pace. Jalen seems to enjoy the zoo so it was a good time investment. Haley called and we wrapped up our zoo time and went and picked her up. We got her something to eat and headed back to Lake Charles to head for home in the morning. it was a good visit down here!
 

 

January 2025 - Blue Origin New Glenn Rocket Reaches Orbit

Posted: January 16, 2025
Today Blue Origin launched their New Glenn rocket and successfully acheived orbit with it. Now we have another space company that has proven they can get a rocket into orbit. They had planned to land the booster on a ship in the Atlantic but it failed due to the engines didn't restart for the re-entry burn needed. It will be interesting to see how Blue Origin competes against SpaceX for launch contracts.
 

 

January 2025 - Exploring Laffeyette LA

Posted: January 16, 2025

So we went on an adventure today over to Laffeyette. LA with Haley and Jalen. Laffeyette is in the heart of Cajun country and we targeted the children's museum over there to check it out. The museum was really neat, with a lot of cool things for kids to explore and engage with. It was a little overwhelming for Jalen but he did good and found things to touch and feel and play with. We spent a good 2 hours walking around this place, and afterwards we went across the Lafeyette Park and had lunch at a place called, Agave Mexican Grill. Neat little resteraunt and the food was good. Jalen seemed to really like his lunch :-). For dinner we stopped in at McAlister's in Lake Charles to finish off the evening. A good day all around!

 

 

January 2025 - Spending a Few Days with Haley

Posted: January 15, 2025
Haley needed a ride to Alexandria for her iron transfusion session this week since Tank's work schedule was not going to allow him to take her. Jacquelyn and I headed down there for a couple days to help out and transport her. Haley's almost 7 months pregnant now and boy is she getting big, just like with Jalen. its always fun to hang out and spend time with the kids, Jalen was his usual self and continues to grow - he's getting really big! He has a birthday later this month - looking forward to that!

January 2025 - Latest in Rick's Fish Tank

Posted: January 11, 2025

Rick continues to tinker with his fish tank and is battling a snail infestation. I think he added a bala shark and some other fish this month as well. He has a pretty large tank (75 gallons) so he has a lot more space to have different fish. Hope he can get the snails under control....

 

 

January 2025 - Dogs in January

Posted: January 10, 2025

The dogs are up to their usual stuff and with winter now in season, Lily tends to enjoy it outside more - she's built for it. They spent some time at the pet resort this month while we were out of town. They always have fun there playing with the other dogs. Wondering if we'll get a good snow here this year that Lily can really play in? Time will tell...

 

 

January 2025 - Snow Daze in Colorado and Texas

Posted: January 9, 2025

Ok - so now the snow arrives. From talking with Violet, they got a good snow up in Colorado and it made it all the way down to Texas as well. There was enough snow on the ground in Fort Worth that Mia and Jack got to go out and play. Violet got to try out her new duck sled she got for Christmas on the burms around her house it looks like. We got a light dusting of snow at our house, but not enough to stick for very long, most of it hit west of us. Winter is in full swing now!

 

 

January 2025 - Celebrating Charlie's 19th Birthday

Posted: January 7, 2025
We went over to Jacquelyn and Erik's house tonight to celebrate Charlie's 19th Birthday and Jack had some birthday gifts for Melody as well. He had birthday Cinnomon rolls this year - that's something different. As always, I think he made out like a bandit on presents; clothes and things for him in Waco. what do you get for a guy in trade school? it was a fun evening - Happy Birthday Charlie!
 

 

January 2025 - Cold Snap Hits Texas - Brrrrrrrr...

Posted: January 6, 2025

OK, so I spoke too soon. Old Man Winter has arrived and with vengance. Wind chill factor got down to single digits for a couple days, and the plants took a beating. It was going to happen sooner or later. We didn't get any snow with this cold spell,but plenty of freezing. Winter is here....

 

 

January 2025 - An Evening of Building Legos

Posted: January 4, 2025
So tonight we met Charlie in Canton to have dinner at the new La Pradera Resteraunt on the square. This mexican resteraunt just opened a few weeks back so we wanted to try it out. Its owned by a friend of Marty's who has several locations around the area. After dinner we headed back to the house and Charlie and I spent the evening building some lego projects. I built WALLE and EVA, and he built a Darth Vader helmet. Its always fun to build things with Legos - I have so many projects backed up, I need to sub-contract more of them :-).
 

 

January 2025 - Rick Kelly Violet Go to Denver Museum of Science

Posted: January 4, 2025
This weekend Rick Kelly and Violet went to the Denver Science Museum for the first time and from the looks of it, had a great time. The exhibits look really interesting with a lot of focus on fossils and dinosaurs (which Colorado is known for I take it). Violet seemed to enjoy the museum getting to dig for fossils and ride a dinosaur. I may have to visit this place the next time we're up there visiting!
 

 

January 2025 - Gardening on the Patio for Winter

Posted: January 3, 2025

So its been a pretty mild winter so far (fingers crossed) and some things are still holding on and producing blooms. The pink honeysuckle bush still has some blooms and the hanging pansies I bought are still blooming. I'm wating for a cold snap to hit and likely wipe this all out but we'll enjoy it as long as we can. Old Man Winter is sure to pay us a visit, he always does :-).

 

 

January 2025 - Latest in the Fish Tank at Home

Posted: January 2, 2025

So we've made some changes to the fish tank at home, added some new fish (red taiger barb, bala shark,golden nugget molly, and cleaner fish) to kinda ratchet up the activitity in the tank for viewing pleasure. The live plant I kept seems to be doing quite well and is growing new bigger leaves which are spreading across the tank. I like the LED feature on the tank so I can turn the tank color to the seasonal shade needed - for now its red for Valentines Day :-).

 

 

January 2025 - Rick's Next Lego Projects

Posted: January 2, 2025

Rick and Kelly have already planned out their next building project for Legos - looks like a medevil village is on the horizon. This should be good!

 

 

January 2025 - New Years Day 2025

Posted: January 1, 2025

As in previous years, we spent a quiet New Years Day at home watching the Rose parade and some football. Nothing too special. It was nice to see the Budweiser Clydesdales in the Parade this year! The College Football Playoffs included Texas so we had a horse in the race to follow agaun this year. They've changed the playoff format and added more teams so the process og getting to the final two takes more rounds. Its a 12 team pook so its 3 rounds of playoff games and one championship. So this year, the national Championship will be mid-late January. Texas took on Arizona State this year in the Peach Bowl down in Atlanta. The Long Horns pulled out the victory, but there were contraversies about some of the calls and such. This win gets them to the final four in Football and they'll play Ohio State next week in the Cotton Bowl.
