We were at this same park with our grandbaby and his Mom and Dad with a canopy set up for our makeshift campsite on the edge of the intercoastal waiting to see history occur in real time. There was a "Woodstockish" feel to the scene of eveyone waiting with their makeshift camps and tents, arriving in the middle of the night with small children and dogs and a vast array of gear.
The experience was pricelss and truly unforgettable as the diverse groups bonded in this common goal to see the sad yet glorious ending of a program we all loved.

Couldn't have said it better.We didn't make the trip which we already regret. The Cocoa beach area is a special place which we have enjoyed many times. Although we've seen two launches, we know we missed somthing unique. Best wishes to NASA and the entire space program.......TOKAJU
