Google has a great header today, that links to the even cooler Google Mars! Make sure to check all the different stuff they have there, including elevation, visible, and IR maps along with pinpoints for mountains, canyons, and even the spots where we’ve put landers and rovers.
VERY COOL, Google.
I had a very relaxing weekend, well, at least what passes for relaxing in Sarah-land these days. After getting back from JPL around 9:00 Friday night and going to bed before 11:00 (ah, sleep, glorious sleep), I only had three things on the agenda: taking pictures at Saturday morning’s Bayou City Classic 10K, taking pictures at Saturday night’s RRCA Awards Banquet, and playing soccer last night. (The referee never showed up, so we only scrimmaged. Disappointing.) The race was the most fun of the three, since I saw a bunch of my fellow Houston Running Bloggers for the first time since before Patagonia (I’m sure I’ll forget someone, but I caught Sam, Lisa, Steve B, Steve S, Cassie, Holden, Dalton, and Jen through the camera lens, and then saw others including Erica, Jessica, Joe, and Edwin afterwards). And speaking of running, this week I plan to get back on track with a few runs myself.
With my three committments out of the way, I spent the rest of the weekend being extremely lazy. Which was very, very nice, even if it wasn’t very productive. Still not done, and thus on the list for yet another weekend: taxes, vaccuuming, servicing the Xterra.
