What a group at Truman Rec Center. Many more peeps than we've seen before. The sighting was excellent, no clouds, and it was spectacular. Thanks TH, I was so enthralled, I forgot my camera.
Many of our friends were there, Eddie, Shirl, Peazoup, Angel 222, Barry B, JoJo. (hope I didn't forget anyone). We brought snacks and wine, of course, !!! Wish you were all there.

Yes it was spectacular this time. I was in Mt. Dora on my daughters front porch thinking about you all. I was hoping it was as sensational from TV as it was from there and judging by the pictures it was!!!!!

Did it land at Target this time? :1rotfl::1rotfl: he he he!

Wow! What a wonderful sight!! JohnnyM mentioned that he wanted to see it, otherwise we might have missed it. Thank you Johnny!

We were at LSL and the viewing was fine. The band played a nice patriotic song right after the launch. It was great!

Beautiful pictures! Sorry I missed it. Yes, Nonie, this one is headed straight for Target! Hope you're here next month as they send one off to Kohl's! :laugh:

Donnaloni! If you get anymore sayings under your name, you won't have room for a post! Hahahah! :1rotfl:

SS, that would have been cool! :coolsmiley:

WOW, those pictures are awesome! Being a TV Wannabe, I had no idea a launch would be that spectacular when viewed from TV.

Yes, Truman Rec Center had the crowd for launch! As we pulled in behind the ctr we were shocked to see so many people had our idea for viewing! :) We have been chasing launches and sunsets for about 5 yrs in TV and this was the best. NASA is of special interest to our family.... my husband's sister was secretary to the original 7 astronauts and she married a NASA engineer.
See you at the next launch?!
