He just retired after being at NASA for...probably somewhere around 30 years. Basically as long as I can remember. He'll be at the launch too.

Yeah that's big.

I took Dad to the one shown. Dad met, sat and got all the autograph's of the Astronauts. They came to Greenbelt, and we all including Dad again went to an Orioles game. Got a pic of my son, dad with the Astronauts at Oriole Park. Really cool schtuff.

Did you guys see in another thread where I said I was a Junior Park ranger with the Georgia DNR? I had a badge but it was plastic :sad: We did not have a space shuttle but we had an old Jeep. Rumor had it that it was Patton's personal Jeep in WWII The Ranger had a picture of Patton in the Jeep.
