On April 17, the shuttle Discovery left town for the last time.
Aimée, Bear and I got up early and went down to the river to watch this last flight.

Behind them, the Kennedy Space Center.

The VAB
Coming back up from the south, along the river.
It was nice to see, but not as nice as watching a shuttle launch into space!
It was sad to watch Discovery leave.
Flying north to Washington, DC.
Leaving our town for the very last time.
sigh
This picture are from where my husband works at the Space Center...
what a view they had!
It is a flight....just not an exciting one!
Going by the work place one last time, heading north.
flying low to give the workers (that are left) one last look.
So, what is going to go on the VAB now???
My husband took this picture from the landing strip at KSC...He got a pretty nice view of the last 'take off' of the Shuttle Discovery.
As much as we enjoy things that have to do with Space Launches here, there is something else that will come in the clouds that thrills us more!
Matthew 26:64
Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
One day Jesus will return in the clouds.....
Now THAT is something thrilling to consider!
