SPACE SHUTTLE

It seemed like we were going to be lucky enough to get to watch up close one of the last few shuttle flights. We are only thirty minutes away from Titusville. However, the launch was delayed yesterday to today, and now it has been delayed until tomorrow. If the rocket does not go off tomorrow, we will again be in a position to go watch.

We drove to Titusville yesterday anyway. There is a marina there that we wanted to visit to discuss a short haul. It was unfortunate, but many people were waiting for the launch without knowing about the delay. Some had driven for hours. It was interesting that not many people would believe us, reporting the delay.

Two Island Packets were anchored in the Indian River, a 380 and a 440. We could not see the boat names because of the wind direction. Does anybody know who they are?
