shuttle launch

[FUTCHCAIRO]

I CARRIED MY ENTIRE SCOUT TROOP, 398, DOWN FOR THE FIRST LAUNCH. THEY LET US CAMP OUT OVER CLOSE TO THE VEHICLE ASSEMBLY BUILDING, THE NOISE WAS SO LOUD YOU COULD NOT HEAR YOURSELF YELLING, THE VIBRATION SHOOK ALL OF THE FOOD OFF OF OUR SERVING TABLE THAT WAS ATTACHED TO THE TRAILER. THOSE 58 BOYS WILL NEVER FORGET THAT LAUNCH. NEARLY EVERY TIME I RUN INTO ONE OF MY SCOUTS THAT WERE ON THAT TRIP, THE FIRST THING THEY MENTION IS THE LAUNCH CAMPING TRIP.
PA THE OLD MAN OF THE SEA
