A shot of an actual "rocket motor" at the Kennedy Space Centre.
This was one of our side trips when we were at Disneyworld, Orlando.
The bottom picture is the business end of the Saturn V rocket that is on display. Excellent exhibit.
Our entire trip was arranged by "cruising Barbie"
Misc pics that I have accumulated during my poking around. None of them very special, just stuff that I noticed at the time. Just a "hack" as far as photography is concerned.

A few shots from a fairly recent trip to LV.
Fremont Street is ALWAYS and interesting place, the old casinos have the most character.
For the "older" people, like myself, this is the area that created the "myth" of Las Vegas. This is the area that appeared in the old Elvis movies, the original "Ocean's Eleven" with Sammy Davis Jr., Dean Martin. The legendary parties that the "Rat Pack" used to have in their house outside of town. The bungalows that used to be on the side of the golf course. Of course, now the bungalows and golf course are gone. The area is now covered with "new" casinos.
I kinda miss the old stuff.

@ Kennedy Space Centre, this is the building that the Saturn rocket and Space Shuttle rolled out of.
The helium filled balloon at Disneyworld Orlando. Pretty cool view of the Orlando property.
This was the first time for "Awesome Lady" to try something like this. She held on pretty tight!! Enjoyed though, and now there is no stopping her!
Thanks to "Cruising Barbie" for arranging the flights.

A small street, in downtown Puerto Vallarta. I just liked the white stucco background and the deeper pastel-style blue trims.

Introduction post.
Just a basic blog about a few places that I have been, a few pictures taken, a lot of good pictures missed, and a whole bunch of pictures lost.
This will be a very intermittent blog, kind of "when I feel like it" Of course, at my age it could also be "when I remember"
