    Wow, congrats Sean! Shoes won't stay on for long Anna. Wish I could say only 4 hrs left! : ) Today finished out our first week in training, log books, PreTrip, FMCSR study, Drug test, Safety Equipment review, map reading and now homework! Only woman in class and I sure am catching the ribbing. Boy I sure admire you two. Quite an inspiration. So tired, but loving it!!!

    Heading out to the shuttle launch this morning. 30% chance of launching today due to weather issues but we have to head out in case it is a go. My friend we are staying with has a very good friend who is an astronaut so we ran over to Orlando last night to pick up a NASA employee pass for the launch. We are going to be close! Fingers crossed on the weather.

    What an amazing day. My friend has a buddy who is an astronaut who got us as close as you get to the launch if you are not working the launch. (He had to come out to the first checkpoint and ride in with us after spending the night in Atlantis preparing it for launch) One of the highlights of my life.

    That is one amazing day....so happy you were able to be there and that the launch went off OK.

    Well, Sean has successfully upgraded and is sitting inside the terminal waiting on Ken to assign her a truck....hopefully it will be tonight and she won't have to wait around until Monday.

    I'm going to be hanging around until Monday because I will be doing road tests on Sunday....LOL........they have so many people in Orientation that it takes time away from processing if they are out doing road tests during the week, so the tests got changed to Sundays.

    That is just awesome! So glad you both had fun. What a wonderful, once in a lifetime experience. I kept telling Ron you both were heading down this way. When I saw you both were heading to Florida I said, we should really meet you both!

    Sean got her truck!!!!!.....We think it's a 2011 Freightliner and we know it is a standard.....bummer is that it is down in Ellenwood so her and four other drivers are being taken down there in the shuttle van in a little while.
