We are getting older.
Was telling my grandson how sad I was to hear of Russia's launch of its spacecraft--leaving the U.S. behind. Being a 5th grader (I believe) I went out at night to see if I could catch a glimpse of it passing overhead. Thank goodness that John Wayne and Clint Eastwood helped us catch up to those
Communists! A mere 12 years later, Armstrong,
Aldren and Collins found the moon!
Take care!
