Heh

So Blaine had her graduation from Space Camp today. She got to come up to the stage first and get a special pin because she was on a team of second- and third-graders who built a “moon-crawler” that traveled the farthest distance of any built in the camp–even farther than those built by the much older kids.

Her team had four girls and one boy. Second place went to a team of seven boys in 3rd and 4th grades.

Yeaaaah. That’s my girl. :-)

    Guys? A word of advice. Avoid engineering classes with women unless you are really, really good.

    They simply destroy the curve….

    Congratulations Blaine (and Mom).
