On July 8, 2011 we gathered
with 1 million other people
(no joke) to watch the NASA's
last and final space shuttle launch.

Blastoff!
As you can see, it was a cloudy day.
And we weren't super close.
But I still got chills.
It was an amazing sight,
and I'm sad we won't be seeing it again.
The drive home was comical.
I had only slept 4 hours the night before,
as I'd been up cleaning for guests.
However, the other 3 occupants
in the car had slept even less than me:
Jake had worked all night
Jake had worked all night
and our friends had taken a red-eye
from Salt Lake to be there.
So I was the designated driver.
They all slept,
and I spent 3 hours
in slow and go traffic singing,
dancing, and pinching myself
to stay awake.
Totally worth it.
