Great pics Betty! How did you score your tickets to view it from there?
When we lived in Florida we could watch it take off from our front yard (albeit 40+ miles away) I could never get over the idea of being able to see something like that from my front yard! I imagine you can see it from your home too, right Betty?
Frank... I am envious of your view of it... must have been awsome.
For any of you who really have it on your list of things to see, a night launch is even more spectacular as it lights up the sky for miles. Years ago my sister took me out to see one when I was visiting her (long before we lived in Florida) and I kept complaining "why are we going out here so late, grumble grumble grumble) then when I saw it I knew why ... one of the most incredible things I have ever seen.
