Photos of tonight's Shuttle launch!

Hope you enjoy- the visibility from our house was the best it's ever been. We even saw the rocket boosters separate and begin their journey towards the Atlantic Ocean (kind of visible in the last pic)..

Cool! I will have to show those to Emilie because she didn't believe me when I told her during the launch (we watched on NASA TV) that you could see it from Orlando and that when I lived in Jacksonville, I could sometimes see them from there (or St. Augustine ).
