Orion Rocket Launch

Set out / Decor / On Display

After three delays yesterday morning, the Orion rocket was go through our cloudy skies. We woke up to rain here on Cocoa Beach, but the weather was fine at Cape Canaveral. It was exciting to be here for the launch, history on display, the first step to a manned launch in the future to deep space. It's cool to hear the take off and feel the vibrations along with viewing it. The clouds cut off most of the view for us, and the videos on the NASA website were really good to watch to see even more of the action. Four hours after launch, Orion landed safely in the ocean. 

I took a break from golf today and swam laps in the community pool. It was funny to hear some of the senior citizens complain about the water being eighty degrees, I was okay with the temperature! I rode my bike down and then came back to prepare supper for the night. On the menu tonight, Spaghetti squash with chicken sausage, onions, peppers, mushrooms and mozzarella cheese. Another good meal!
