It’s Amazon PRIME Day(s)!

Guess what? Today starts Amazon Prime Days! June 23 through June 26 you can shop millions of items heavily discounted – up to 40%!. It’s typically in July, so take advantage of this earlier sale to kick off summer. Pretty much the “Black Friday” in June. You can find a list of the Amazon Prime Deals HERE. Don’t have a Prime account? No worries, you can sign up for Prime here to take advantage of these short-term offers. I thought I would take today to show you what I normally order via Amazon Prime. From beauty to electronics to fashion, this is the time to stock up. My recommendation is that if there’s something you typically buy on Amazon, check and see if it’s on sale and buy for less!

STARBASE TEXAS – Gateway to Mars … and beyond!

STARBASE TEXAS – Gateway to Mars … and beyond!

“You want to wake up in the morning and think the future is going to be great – and that’s what being a spacefaring civilization is all about. It’s about believing in the future and thinking that the future will be better than the past. And I can’t think of anything more exciting than going out there and being among the stars.”  – Elon Musk

I finally took some time last week to check off one of the more exciting items on my bucket list. I flew to South Texas to visit Boca Chica, Texas and the new SpaceX rocket base there. This is going to be the SpaceX equivalent of NASA’s Kennedy Space Center. Just outside of Brownsville, Elon Musk’s SpaceX is building a giant new rocket called Starship and a new launch facility named Starbase. The goal is to support Elon’s dream of making the human race interplanetary. The Starship is being designed to support establishing a colony on Mars. I hope you enjoy joining me on this adventure.
