[...] The launch was delayed an evening, but it was an amazing 4:14am launch of Shuttle Endevour. [...]

Ooops! I usually manually add her in when she makes an appearance. But I think she desires billing all the time. Added to my template for future videos.

Thanks for catching Kiki before she boarded the shuttle. We would have missed her

I couldn’t help but notice in the credits on the video that the feline technomad was left out. The Kikinator must be feeling pretty miffed at you right now!

Thanks again for all the hospitality in Orion. We had a great time and loved the tour of the trailer, all the talk of Burning Man, and life on the road. Maria was most excited to meet Kiki, and I’m glad the Greyhounds were inside when Kiki tried to bail!

We’ll be seeing you again, hopefully with our road vehicle too!

Amazing! I used to live just up the coast from this and I’m only sorry that this program’s days are numbered. Been listening to Larry Niven’s “Lucifer’s Hammer”; we need to go further!

JoAnna – the shuttle fleet is getting too old to keep maintained and our commitments to the ISS coming to an end. It’s simply come time to retire them and launch the next generation of space flight and exploration.

Wow! What a great video Cherie! I didn’t know the shuttle program was coming to an end. Why is that?

Can’t wait for our next rendezvous, Louise! This has been awesome beyond belief! (Well, isn’t that our lives in general?)

Thanks Jonathan.. Unfortunately, looks like Our Odyssey is bugging out northward today. But we’re definitely looking forward to meeting up on our way out of FL (sometime in the next 2-6 weeks ). Who knows, we may even end up caravaning to NuRVers?

We got up at 4 am and drug our feet a bit. We didn’t get a camera set up and were nowhere near as close as you, but we still caught a decent view of the shuttle until the boosters were dropped. Excellent footage, thanks!

Hopefully the Odyssey folks will be hanging out a bit longer and we can manage to get over there to meet up with everyone soon.

GREAT video! Your camera is far superior to ours, and so are your mad editing skillz.

Cherie, you said, “Wow!” at exactly the same moment I did as the shuttle lifted. Another convergence. We had a wonderful time being your temporary neighbors. See you again on the road.
