You do know the Georgia border is a solid three hours from KSC, right? Certainly there must be something closer.

I had a nice treat tonight. I walked out of my home, right next to KSC, just with the intention of going to the market and BOOOM! a rocket launches right then and there! It was a small rocket, but boy oh boy could you feel, hear, see it.

I'm sad I will be away until the 2nd on July. Hopefully it will be scrubbed until the 3rd, as I leave again on the 4th. This would be my first shuttle launch!!

Another treat I hope comes through, my company is erecting the media towers at the launch site. I'm cleared to be on the job site, but alas the rumors are it's being moved to later in the week (causing me to miss the chance to be up close and personal with the ultimate airline ride) because NASA didn't pay their bill! If I do go, I'll definitely post some pictures, provided I am allowed to take them.
