The Space Shuttle took off Sunday night. If I hadn't happened to have the TV on in the other room and heard the live coverage I would not even have remembered that it was going to launch. But we quickly ran into the backyard and waited for the fireball to appear. And there it was! Definitely can't come anywhere close to the true night launch that my Dad and Cindy and I went to a couple months back, but the smoke trail it left in the twilight was absolutely gorgeous. It went from pink to gold to white and really was one of the more beautiful sights I have seen.
