At this weekend's DARS Turkey Shoot, we're conducting a contest for vintage rockets. I'm planning on entering 7, maybe 8 rockets.

Here are the little ones:

All clones. For those too young to recognize these, they are, back
row, L-R: BT-60 upscale Midget, Cherokee-D with JimZ decals IIRC,
Sprint with TangoPapa decals, and a Midget K-40. Front: Scout, Streak
and Sprite.

And here's the eighth, my upscale Avenger:

Not sure if I'll haul that one up, tho.

I'm sure the purists will decry my mixed paint and decal set on the
Sprint, but hey, it looked good to me :)

Anyway, I'm getting pumped. With the last two launches partly or
completely rained out, I feel like I've been getting ready for this
launch for months :)

And if something happens and we don't get the launch in this weekend,
I'll probably go nuts :)
