If you could read my mind, love
What a tale my thoughts could tell
Just like an old time movie
'Bout a ghost from a wishing well
In a castle dark or a fortress strong
With chains upon my feet
You know that ghost is me 💔

10012W played awesome in the finals but came up just short losing 2 games to 1. They never quit and battled hard to the end. Congrats on coming 2nd in the world which is a mind blowing accomplishment. Well done Sean, Kobe, Yoonie & Daniel. @WestVanSchools #westvaned
And so many people came up to me after and said not only were they great at robotics they were such wonderful human beings... Best compliment to them and the village of people raising them!
Another awesome performance for our robotics program! Consistently one of the top in the world! #westvaned
Our team 10012W managed to come second in the world. We couldn't be prouder of these students. (sorry about the poor light picture from the stadium floor) @TenTonRobotics was mentioned as being one of the best programs in the world. 😍

Got a closer look at the #MarsHelicopter than I’ve had in quite a while. Ingenuity is a little dustier since its first flight two years ago today (!!) – but it’s looking mighty good after 50 flights!
ALT Photo from NASA’s Mars Perseverance rover shows the Ingenuity Mars Helicopter on the Red Planet. The small, dual-rotor helicopter rests on four thin legs and is seen in the lower right of the photo, on a dusty, rock-strewn surface. In overhead sunlight, the helicopter casts a shadow directly below. Its horizon-facing terrain camera can be seen at the center-bottom of the fuselage. A thin layer of dust can be seen on its rotors and solar panel.
