Seems like yesterday. I was at the Kennedy Space Center Press Site {ABC News} for liftoff of Apollo 11, still have some of the credentials.

I was at Scout Camp! Amazing! I watched the moon landing from a log cabin without wired electrical outlets or running water!

They brought in a TV, set it up in the middle of a cabin, ran some power to the cabin from the nearby Mess Hall, got the best reception possible in that part of Northern Wisconsin, and we watched the landing on a static filled TV set!

Wow... this is the day, huh?? I was at my aunt and uncle’s house being tortured for the summer by my fat girl cousins lol. Good times, good times. I may have tortured back by eating a ton of sunflower seeds then sprinkling the shells in my cousin’s bed. I also might have done the plastic wrap over the toilet. BUT they deserved it hahahhaha. On the other hand, there was an ABUNDANCE of Fudgesicles.

I was enthralled with watching the moon landing. I think I asked my uncle a gazillion questions.
