Title: Rocket launch
Post by: GTRS Fiero on February 23, 2017, 07:54:37 pm: Have you ever witnessed a rocket/shuttle launch? I want to.

I tried, years ago, but the launch was delayed. Then it blew up. Need Another Seven Astronauts. The next time, something came up, and I missed the launch.

Of course, those programs are over, now.

There was a launch and the night sky was so clear that we could briefly see it from his room, here just outside Atlanta. I don't remember if it was a shuttle or some other type of rocket. Melanie and I also planned to go down to see a launch, but health got in the way.

I think I saw a pic of Melanie. It could've been someone else. A few years ago, at a picnic. Blonde hair, kindof short, oxygen tubes. Sitting in a chair. Whitish, button-down shirt.

Post by: GTRS Fiero on February 23, 2017, 09:01:24 pm: I thought Donster had 3, and the '88 went to a father and son from TN. I think that was Shanine's.

Yeah. Not a good pic of Redraif.

Post by: Fierofool on February 23, 2017, 09:14:13 pm: That isn't Redraif. That's the father that bought Anne's 85 and Shanine's 88. He and his daughter drove the 85 and the son drove the 88. Redraif is a woman.

I know. On the left. Bad pic.

LOL. If that guy in the previous pic was Redraif, it would have been a REALLY bad pic.
