I was a younger man living in Florida when they started launching these into space. I've seen a lot of them go and it started to be a so so feeling every time there would be a launch. But when I drove up to this amazing site this morning it was a little overwhelming to see it with the sun coming up so close. Sounds a little weird I'm sure.

Excellent shot Don. I can remember the first Sputnik in orbit, and all the space shots since. It's just too damn bad the media lost interest in it all. I wasn't aware another one was getting ready to go.
