Too cloudy down here in Sofla, saw a peek through the clouds, will miss them when they are gone...as will the thousands that lose jobs when it is canned.

Parked at Prichard and Washington Ave. (US Hwy 1) in Titusville Fl. and walked up the the waters edge to watch the shuttle launch. That shuttle lit up the night sky. Very impressive, and a great rumble at 6:21 in the morning. If you go to this site http://spaceflight1.nasa.gov/realdata/sightings/cities/skywatch.cgi?country=United+States (http://spaceflight1.nasa.gov/realdata/sightings/cities/skywatch.cgi?country=United+States) and type in you location you can watch the shuttle catch up with the space station on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings as they pass overhead.
