Favorite Rockets: Odd'l Sputnik

Biography:

My first experience with model rockets was when my brother built one as a kid. It was one of those snap-together easy rockets. Cool, but not that interesting.

Later, I taught summer classes for elementary school kids where we did model rockets. It was fun but, again, nothing special.

Then, my boyfriend discovered some unique looking rockets at the local hobby shop. He and his brother built a few kits and invited me to the launch. When I saw how cool model rockets can be and how fun it is to build and launch them, I was hooked! Now, I love buying, building, and flying model rockets. (I am usually working on 5 at a time!) My favorite rockets are the sci-fi designs and the oddball rockets. I giggle and squeal every time I watch Sputnik fly! Laughing
