On the way now. Had to go commercial. Wx wouldn't go along with the plan. Key West tomorrow.

Bummer about the wx.
I was wondering when we would get a heads up you were on your way.......checked your spot page but it did not have any new data.

In Salt Lake City now. On to Orlando at 5 pm.

Damn!...Wanted to chase you accross the country with your spot..thought maybe you would swing by SNY. Bummer!
Well, have fun anyway.

Not half as bummed as me. Buried lots of good pilots because they messed with the wx.

Now

I think I will go watch the shuttle luanch this Sunday 4:39 AM

Sitting here in Key West just had Mexican dinner. Big ass rain on us now. Going flying tomorrow, Everglades. Cheers

Rob, I have Mexican beer every day! You went the wrong direction!! However, witnessing a missle launch is awesome. Have fun.

Missle launch

Watching the space shuttle go off is a life changing moment... Serious HP involved

Rob. I hope it does launch on time... get as close as you can, feel the ground shake and it will turn night into day.. It is amazing

And,,, lets Hope Danica survives her first stock car race too.

Damn... coming out of the final 9 minute hold the launch was scrubbed due to low clouds... it was running real smooth too. Rob. I hope you get to see it go off before you leave Fla. and lets hope for good weather for the 500.. Are you going to the twin 150's ?

I used to live about 5 miles down the road from there at a place called Shang-ri-la Harbour which on the opposite shore from Indian Island. Watched the shuttle launch once while I was having my coffee up on deck. Wow! That thing goes a lot faster than it seems to on the televisor!
