VioletMyst still believes that Unusual traveling instructions are dancing lessons from God

if for no other reason, i’m tied to England genetically,,,and this Garden has my Initials…. :)

plus i always loved this little poem:

“I am her majesty’s dog at Kew,
Pray tell me sir, Whose dog are you ?”

Swill mass quantities of Razzberry Martini’s…

But i’ve got too much to do First

;D

i got lost on the way to Niagara Falls (ok! so i missed the itty bitty Canadian sign!) ‘wished I couldve seen more than just the truck stop off the highway where i re-figured out my route…..

:D

[ scanned photos to follow ]

not technically Cocoa Beach, but one of my primary memories is of this building….

Its hard to realize, since it’s not next to anything else of scale —but it’s an over 50 story building...

This is from a web page i just came across ~

Three-and-a-half miles distant from Launch Complex 39, engineered to handle the awesome power of Saturn liftoffs, a 525-foot high structure was built to assemble the mammoth boosters. This structure, now tagged the Vehicle Assembly Building, towered above the Florida landscape. It was capable of erecting four of the monstrous Saturn V boosters simultaneously. To move a fully stacked Saturn V to its launch pad, a giant diesel-powered crawler transporter would lumber across a specially-built roadway. A Launch Control Center served as the brains of the Moonport, directing mission support, fuel loading, and launch of the powerful Saturn launch vehicles.

Construction activities lead to an operational Launch Complex 39 by 1967. Twelve piloted and unpiloted Saturn V/Apollo missions rocketed away from Kennedy Space Center between 1967 and 1972.

i’ll always save this for last….

after i make it to every where else in the world that sounds fascinating…! But—Alas! A girl must Prioritize…!!

;D

another fascinating-sounding place i know nothing about, to be shifted to the “Back-Up List”
