Randy's daughter, graduated from Rocky Mt. High School in
Ft. Collins, Co. on May 22nd, 2005. Their motto holds true for My Granddaughter

"Oh, the places you'll go!

You have feet in your shoes.

You can steer yourself and direction you choose."

-Dr. Seuss

When she was a sophomore she wrote an essay for an Aquarius contest that rewarded her with a trip the the NASA training center in Florida.

If you go to google;then ryefamily.net/;then untitled document;then to /; then to the aquarius experience and click on the pictures at the bottom of the screen until you get to slide 27 you will see My Granddaughter with her friends. She has kept contact with these people and last week or, so she e-mail Peggy Winston in Russia as she prepared to blast off to the space station as the first female commander of the project to congradulate her (Peggy is in slide 27 identified only as Peggy) and asked Peggy to greet Clay who has been on the space station for 6 months(Clay is in slide 27 also). My Granddaughter has been in contact with Clay via e-mail for the past 6 months during his stay in the space station. Peggy is a phd. who happens to have the same discipline that My Granddaughter is pursing at the University of Colorado at Boulder.

When she returned from her Nasa summer project My Granddaughter had picked up a name that was floating around there and then discovered that he on the faculty at CU. She e-mailed him and he answered. He was the one who designed the underwater training station that you will see in the slides and he was a little jealous of My Granddaughter because he has never been in the station he designed.

You have brains in your head.

You have feet in your shoes.

You can steer yourself any direction you choose."
