Hi Bob! 🎵"Thanks for the memories."🎵 My family and I were there in the crowd back there somewhere. What you can't see is how hot and humid it was, especially when the Sun poked thru. That was the first launch I had ever attended and after all the "suffering" (LOL), I was honored to have witnessed such an occasion.
