Default Couple Pics of Friday's Shuttle Launch.

Just got done cleaning the bike of Everglades Muck after making dinner, thought I share a couple pics from last night....I'm no photog....I just thought it was cool. I was about 150 miles away.

Looking East, Shuttle just getting going.

Very cool! So you can see the launches from your house? That's awesome.

Those pics are from Orlando, the view from my house is not as good but you can still see it fine if there are no clouds.

Best thing to do is dunk the skiff and get up close...2006
