One of these days, Alice, right to the moon!

Posted on April 17, 2012 by

Just when I thought I would not be able to come up with a post today, a good friend in DC sent this along:

“All – the DC office was treated to an incredible sight today; the space shuttle Discovery on its final flight.  The initial flight path over Rosslyn had it directly above the office, followed by several other fly-bys near us and over DC. The attached photos were taken by Jamie Bowden from Owen’s balcony this morning.   Enjoy!”

    The scene in DC reminded me of the first time I saw the shuttle in 1980 or so… I’ll write up a blog entry on it tonight.

    thanks for sharing.
