Space Shuttle
 

Hey guys, OT I guess but thought I would share. The Space Shuttle Endevour flew over our house yesterday then we watched the final approach to LAX from our upstairs window.

I seen the first one land at Edward AF Base and now the last.

I was lucky enough to watch the one head into NY, and the one yesterday. Sort of sad in a way. At one time, the world watched us because we did great things.

Truly an end to an era. I was fortunate to watch the last Shuttle launch last year at Cape Kennedy. My 10 year old daughter and my Dad were there with me. What a great time to make some memories.
