A couple hours later...
Oct. 25th, 2003 05:09 pmJust spent an hour or so going through the Liberty Bell Seven exhibit with Travis. It was a truly fascinating experience...it was fun to learn about what went into its launch, its loss, and its recovery...and amazing to stand in the very same room, separated only by a thin plexiglass case and about a foot of space, from the second American manned spacecraft.
It would have been nice if we'd had more time to spend, but it doesn't really matter too much...I saw the main thing I came to see, and it was every bit as inspiring as I'd expected.
Unfortunately, we won't be able to hit the bookstore this afternoon after all, as it seems they're closed. But it's not a big tragedy; there are plenty of used bookstores in the world.
Going to close this entry now and head out to do the rest of the stuff we're going to do today. Later.
