No go for launch! We drove out to the beach today to see the launch of the Space Shuttle Discovery... but it was scrubbed with about 2 hours or so on the clock. Looks like Monday. The day was not a loss, however - the weather turned out to be beautiful, and we had a great day on the beach. We are lucky to have supernice friends with a beachfront condo - lots of people were stuck for hours in heavy traffic getting out to Titusville. We hope to get back out there for the launch next week!
Strange, but true: for some reason, the Florida Atlantic Ocean now looks like the Caribbean Sea! People who live on the beach say it has been like this since the hurricanes. There is also a difference in the sand - it is not really sand anymore... it is very grainy, with zillions of tiny crushed-up shells.

I brought home some of the ground up sea shells for my kids at school in April. They were amazed. I had already brought in some really nice ones for the second graders. They study the sea and animals, etc.
Love your news -- grandma
