In Orlando for the Eliott Maisey Conference for Greg and Butler to speak on their book….drove over to Titusville, to the marina and Cape Canaveral to see the lock to come thru at the inlet there. Also got to see an unmanned space craft lift off. Really cool thing to see.

Cape Canaveral  launch….such a fun experience to see this take off. We joined tons of people along the road to watch it.

We had so much fun on this trip….mostly seeing all the people we love spending time with but also seeing the fall colors and taking a train trip.

Now we wait for rain to move out of NC and continue heading south….
