Tweetup Day 1 - Thursday, July 7 - Walking by the VAB

We had horrific thunderstorms and copious amounts of rain on Thursday. We were still 30% no go for launch on Friday, but we were hopeful. Our morning was filled with speakers and presenters which explains our high spirits. One thing missing? The cooler of water and sandwiches left in the car! It gets mighty hot in Florida; so the break in the weather and a trip to the cafeteria was most welcome. My apologies for the quality of video and audio - I was trying to keep up with the crowd (you don't want to be unaccompanied while there), was more than thirsty, and filming with my iPhone.

OH! I forgot to mention that we were able to get photos of the small alligator we found in that culvert. Alan warned, after I sent him the pic, that we should watch out for the mother. WHOOPS! She never surfaced, thankfully!
