Kennedy Space Center



Is there anything better than Astronaut Ice Cream? Not according to these two!

Apollo 11
Budding Space Voyagers!

Catching up on some mid-summer fishing

This pod of dolphins followed us for about 2 miles jumping through the boat wake and swimming ahead to show us the way!
Hey....is that guy hugging my wife? Greg is actually a great friend with a very nice boat. Jen and I took a trip with Greg and his wife Debbie on a day that unfortunately produced very few fish. We had three nice Wahoo knock-downs in the morning, but remainded skunked until Jen started pulling up the mighty sea-bass. I think she ended the day with about 8! Way to go babe!
This bonita took a spanish sardine free lined under a shrimp boat about 20 miles out of Ponce Inlet.
This bruiser is my largest Jack weighing in at 37 lbs. His little cousins ravage the inshore mullet schools. This large adult took a trolled ballyhoo about 10 miles out at Bethel shoals. He put up a good twenty five minute fight. Although we were extremely bummed given we were fishing a tournament and were certain that we had a smoker king coming up to the boat, we sent him back to the depths to wear out another fisherman's arm someday.

Shuttle Launch

We were extremely fortunate to get VIP tickets to see the Shuttle Launch on Saturday. We were sitting at the same site the Astronauts's family members sit! Yes, you could feel the tremble! Unfortunately, Jennifer was off in California drinkning wine and soaking her feet in the hot tub with Lauren and the rest of the Bachelorette Party...tough life! So, the boys and I had to go it on our own. Here are a couple of the shots. There are just too many to upload. I'll put some generic one's of the boys at the Space Center up over the next two days. Enjoy.

On Our Way to the Launch






I think the boys are liking it!
