See a moon lander and a gigantic wristwatch? Where can you see all of these great space related things? No where else but the U.S. Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville Alabama.
Mr. Fix-it, the Jimster, myself, and our daughter Liz all took a trip to the Space Center in Huntsville Alabama and had a fantastic time. The museum is quite large and had tons of stuff to do. My personal favorite was the IMAX. Wow on getting air sick without flying.
For a limited time entry to the Space Center is FREE to active duty military and their family members. What a deal!
Seeing the Space Center and remembering our race to space made me remember where I was when the first American man walked on the moon. I was at my mother's knee in our little trailer in Maine. My mother laughed, and she cried, and she slapped her knee so much I truly thought she was nuts (I was nearly six years old)! I will never forget that memory. During all of this she was wondering if she should wake up my younger sister to also come and watch the moon landing. You remember it was broadcast late at night? We girls were usually in bed at the time. The moon landing is one of my earliest memories. Seems like yesterday sometimes.
Do you all remember the moon landing? And if so, please share your memory with us....
