Comrades:

Time for my annual reflection and encouragement for you to do the same. Last January, I listed eight rocketry goals of which I accomplished exactly one, finishing a Blossom V-2. On the other hand, I did finish my NARTrek Silver, learning a bunch about Boost-Gliders along the way. I scratch-built a 1/10 Ute booster that flew very well. I built 3 Tomahawks to launch off of it that need a final paint day to be complete. An Enerjet Aero-Dart, a 1340 and a Zooch Saturn V were completed, too. I repaired and repainted my TLP Hellfire but got bogged down rescuing a Centuri Stiletto and an Interceptor.

I did get three good launch days.

So for 2020, my totally-doable list of things to do is:

1) Finish the rescue of the Stiletto and Interceptor;
2) Complete the Paiute booster I started;
3) Complete my NARTrek Gold;
4) Drastically reduce the number of started but incomplete projects laying around my desk;
5) Finish the Atlas 541 before the Mars Rover launch
6) Launch! I have a bunch of stuff that needs launching. It's not a rocket 'till it flies.

My son is heading up his high school TARC team so I'm hoping that translates to more launch days over the next few months.

What about you guys?
