Rockets







Jace loved building, painting & launching model rockets with his Dad, and Mom who was always there to watch them launch and take pictures.  He loved pressing the launch button and sending them so high into the sky we couldn’t see them anymore.  But when they came back into sight it was cool chasing the parachute until it landed, sometimes on foot or by four wheeler.  Over all the years only 1 rocket part was lost, not too bad.  He had quite the collection of fancy painted rockets. Our home in Fillmore, UT was the best place to launch because of the huge space behind our home to send them up and find them after they come down.
