We got meet Barbara Morgan, from the Boise, Idaho area. She is the school teacher who made the trip to the International Space Station last summer. Jake's mom is a gifted and talented teacher and last year her students decided on a project to install a wind turbine at their school. Jake was the electrician when the turbine was put up. We were able to attend the ribbon cutting ceremony, meet Barbara Morgan. Kya and Eli were fortunate enough to have some one on one time with her prior to the ceremony. Despite Eli's lack of enthusiasm in the picture they were thrilled to meet someone who had been in space. So was I, really-how often do you get to meet and converse with an astronaut.
That is super cool!
