Viewing the International Space Station Last Night

Last night was perfect viewing to see the International Space Station in Southwest Florida.  At 7:23 pm last night, the Space Station moved from the southwest sky to the north east and was bright as could be.  We could see it for a good 4 minutes. 

       I was so very excited that our 3 year old grandson was also able to see it.  He had to call us to tell us he had seen it "and it was really bright!"  He apparently could not quit talking about it through out the evening.  He loves the stars and planets and can pick out some of the planets and Orion in the sky.  And is learning more all the time. 

This morning when he woke up (and remember he's 3) he tells his Mother " I'm going to work on the Space Station.  You will see me in the bright one when I am an adult."  I can't wait to see what he chooses as a profession when he is an "adult". 

A couple of weeks ago when Mars was easily see here, he told us that he "is going to go to Mars."  When asked how he was going to do that he responded "I'm not sure yet, but I am working on it."  Then of course Grandpa had to ask if he could go along >>> grandson: "No, it's way too far for you to go. I will be going buy myself." 

So whether it's around the corner or all the way to Mars, in the eyes of a 3 year old - IT IS AN ADVENTURE.

Have you heard of ooVoo

Are you looking for a great way to do video calling for free?  Are you looking for an alternative to Skype? Do you have the new EVO or other Android phone that is not supported in Skype? We have found ooVoo to be a great app. 

 My daughter and her husband just bought the new EVO Android Phones through Sprint.  One of the great things about the phones is the video chat capability, but Skype does not support the EVO.  So a quick google yesterday found a fantastic forum that recommended  ooVoo

ooVoo was easy to download on the phone and a desktop, and within minutes we were video chatting, for free.  The set-up was easy as could be, and connection was FAST.  We are so pleased with the quality, speed, and EVO support.

Need another reason to try it, they also are supportive of the military and have a program that give a coupon for discounted calling minutes for military personnel. 

If you want an alternative or an additional way to video chat, then try ooVoo


OK I can't quit without saying - Try ooVoo for your EVO!

Cape Canaveral, History and Light House

So it has been a while since I have talked with a great friend of ours, Sonny Witt.  And today, as in every year, we call him to wish him HAPPY BIRTHDAY.  You see, it's always easy to remember his birthday - Ground Hog Day!!  And what a surprise, he's been very busy writing a book that is now complete.


                       DRAWN TO THE LIGHT


We have always loved to go to The Cape, there is so much History,  you can feel the people that have stepped foot in the area if you take the time and listen.  Sonny has done a superb job, not only with the book, but his work at preserving the history that we cannot lose.   Follow the Link to reserve your signed copy.  You will not be disappointed.
