The last launch

Space shuttle Discovery had one last mission to complete. Randy (my husband) was there to witness it. At daybreak Tuesday April 17 ,the oldest of NASA's retired shuttle fleet left it's home at Kennedy Space Center for the final time, riding on top a modified jumbo jet. It's destination: the Smithsonian Institution's hangar outside of Washington , D.C. The plane and jet made a farewell flight over Cape Canaveral before heading north. Randy drove a hour before daybreak to Coco beach along with hundred's of other people to see it. He said it was one of those times that you definitely want to stay in the moment and try to remember for the rest of your life. Sifu Linda Shipalesky BREATH DEEPLY AND APPRECIATE THE MOMENT. LIVING IN THE MOMENT COULD BE THE MEANING OF LIFE.
