Leaving Florida

We left Florida on April 15th, but I have to include a picture of Fred giving his last Nike Missile Base tour at Everglades National Park.


This was a great experience for us, alot of work, but we really enjoyed learning about the area and working with such a wonderful group of people.  Thanks to the National Park Rangers that we meet and worked with Ryan, Julie, Larry, Glauco, Leon, Leslie and Kirk (and Dale), and Bob (and Debbie) and to the other volunteers, Jan, Barb, Tom, Laura, Hayley and Linda. We hope to see you all again real soon.

We had a nice trip up north, however,  the only place of interest that we stopped at on the way was in Huntsville Alabama at the Space Camp and museum at the Red Stone Arsenal.  This is where NASA did a lot of the research and development into the space program.  We also got to see some kids who were there for space camp launch some rockets that they had made.  We even got to keep a few that landed in the bed of the truck or on top of the RV!!.

It was great to see the family and to celebrate Fred's dad's 93rd birthday!!
