Scrubbed Again 

Florida, Road Trip, States


For the second night in a row the SpaceX launch has been scrubbed. Yesterday it was to allow the liquid oxygen a longer time to chill, today we don’t know the reason. According to the webcast to which we were listening, the launch may be rescheduled in a few days. A moan of disappointment was uttered by those gathered at waters edge particularly those who will no longer be here in a few days. We are not among them. We got news today from NC DMV that our license plate would go out in today’s mail so we can expect it to arrive here in a mere seven to ten days. Apparently we experienced an unprecedented glitch in the system which explains why the plate wasn’t issued eight days ago as originally expected. We’re just glad to be stuck in a spot where we can extend our stay and enjoy the area and maybe even see the Falcon 9 launch in a few days!

Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream.

London’s National Portrait Gallery’s temporary exhibition, “Six Lives: The Stories of Henry VIII’s Queens” presents an amazing collection of portraits, jewelry, personal effects, books, costumes, and more to illustrate not only the lives of the six women who married the second Tudor king, but the effort across five centuries to keep their memory alive.

The purpose of our trek to Strawberry Hill House in Twickenham in the southwest of London was to see a recently recovered bronze bust of the Emperor Caligula but we discovered so much more in the recently restored 18th Century “little Gothic castle” built by Horace Walpole.
