The Second Shot

Sitting here at Dodger Stadium parking lot waiting for COVID 19 vaccine. I think we are in the next group of 5 that will get the shot. There are other exciting events happening on the world stage. Wombats have rectangle poop and it happens because of action in the intestine.

Soon the Mars rover, Perseverance, will begin it’s decent to the surface. It’s a risky event and we won’t know if it’s successful for 7 minutes. By the time we get our shots we should know. Also we are repairing a deep space antenna in Australia to be able to communicate with Voyager 2. It is past our solar system and it takes over 17 hours for a one way message. It will take less time to get our shots.

Safe on Mars and have gotten shot before they ran out of the vaccine.

Three beets and a turnip

This was the first harvest from our winter garden. It is almost exciting as all the activity around and hopefully on Mars. And was excited to learn of the very distant Farfaraway out in the far far away of our solar system. It was many times the distance to Pluto.

I think it will not be colonized for a long long long time. Perhaps it would not be a place to raise three beets and and a turnip.
