July 4th, 2006 (Daytona Beach, Florida)
At just about 2:30 PM EST today, I heard a guy call out at our outreach site, "Loook to the South. The Space Shuttle is about to be launched."
I quickly retrieved my digital camera from the back seat of the pick up and got ready to get myself a little piece of history. (This is the very first shuttle launch that has taken place on Independence Day).
Within just a few seconds you could see the Space Shuttle Discover racing into the Southern skies over central Florida above the Atlantic Ocean. My memory immediately raced back to the two space shuttle disasters that claimed the lives if fourteen astronauts--and when the shuttle disappeared from site, leaving only a pillar of smoke behind--we all sighed and thank God for keeping them safe.
The below picture was snapped from my vantage point standing behind a vending truck parked beachside--that just-so-happened to be flying an American Flag! What a tremendous backdrop for not only THIS picture, but also for THIS picture on THIS day!
