Space Shuttle Launch!

Seeing a live space shuttle launch has always been one of Brent's dreams and on May 11, 2009, we got to achieve it! The crazy thing was, the space shuttle launched on the day it was scheduled at the time it was scheduled. I have never heard of such a crazy thing. :)

That day in Florida was pretty much the only day it didn't rain, and we had a great time exploring the Kennedy Space Center. Great memories!


We wanted to know how photogenic we would be in space, next to the space shuttle.


Those rockets were COOL!

Brent inside the Command Module. He looks like a true astronaut, doesn't he? :)

Brent driving the LEM, and I think he's having fun. :)

Me driving the LEM. Notice the graceful way I drive around on the moon.


Brent by the shuttle. Well, not "the" shuttle.

The people at the Kennedy Space Center were so pleased to see us that they let us inside their shuttle. Amazing!


Brent and I have decided to change careers.


Must end with a picture of Gumby. He looks particularly good in this one, don't you think?
