Beyond the moon
Today we lost Neil Armstrong who was a true pioneer and hero of American history. Although he was labeled that in life, he always remained humble about walking on the moon. I remember learning about the Apollo program in grade school and was so inspired that I saved up several weeks of allowances in order to get my first model rocket building kit. I spent hours building and painting those rockets and then finally launching them. With each launch I felt somehow connected to those astronauts that I so admired. Rest in peace Mr. Armstrong and thank you for the inspiration.
