A Suit for Every Card

Wednesday morning;

9:00am; The phone rings, its an 818 area code. I blew it off thinking it was just another telemarketer or someone trying to sell me some insurance that everyone knows I need some how. I let the voice message pick it up and if it was important enough then they would leave a message right?

9:10am; Phone rings again, same number. What the heck man! Just leave a message! I figured Id answer if it had to be that important...turns out it was JPL asking my plans for the weekend. I reply with nothing (even if I had a crap ton of work to get done, you dont tell JPL your busy)

12:00 noon; Im on my way to SLO airport to partake in a CRAZY 3 day trip to Argentina to watch the launch of my project I was working on over the past summer. I have thrown the best of the best pictures together for your viewing pleasure.

My first stop being the launch site.

This the the butte that they are throwing up, crossing fingers that it does not have the same fate as NASA's 248 million mess up at Vandenberg.

Next stop was a ride to the Bed and Breakfast I got to call home and set up a computer to connect with all of you guys at home

setting up the blog....

The office room never seems to be used......at all!

I then was allowed to visit the city...Buenos Aires...with 2 other team members. We grabbed a cab before dinner in which the itinerary will then be handed out.

In the middle of the city are ruins from long ago. Diego tells me they are ruins from a 4th century Roman temple.....I argue that it was a place of sacrifice and death for the God of wealth......he was right.

Argentina's most famous cemetery,La Recoleta Cemetery is the burial ground for Buenos Aires' rich and powerful. Since political power plays kept her body from being buried in Argentine soil, there is a bronze plaque noting the final resting place of the beloved Evita Perón.
