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!
