Zep'lin by Renault

In my latest them of cool things in the air -- this is a design project by the Renault autogroup. Solar powered airship. Very cool.

Festo AirJelly

Festo is a German company specializing in pneumatic actuators and the like. What they've really gotten attention (at least my attention) for is biologically inspired systems. Check out this video of the AirJelly - inspired by a Jellyfish. Probably too windy for this around here, but they also have a bionic kite!

Our Room

Finally got our room done. I think it looks pretty good. It certainly feels more clean and enjoyable to be in. Click the pic below for the full gallery.

Lindsay's Birthday

We delayed Lindsay's birthday party by a few days to make sure we had a date where everyone could come. It worked out great at the Rosburg school. Instead of cake, Amy had the girls decorate cupcakes with frosting and candy. Our friend Mary brought her donky cart and gave rides and the girls decorated the room with streamers and used chalk to make a giant birthday card outside. Small group, low stress, beautiful sun, great day. (click through for full size pics)
