One small step, he called it
[Hubby took me out for a surprise pre-holiday event tonight! So this will be sort of brief (for me, anyhow).]
Unsurprisingly, the Union Terminal Museums features a pretty fabulous exhibit about the space race that is almost worth the price of admission all by itself (but I'm a patriotic little nerd, so...).
There were no aliens at the museum, I just blurred out the face of the little girl gazing so adorably at Neil Armstrong's space suit. As you might imagine, the museum was busy, so I grabbed the best opportunity for a good picture; this happened to be it, but no doubt a lot of parents would freak out. Sad world we're in. (Shame, because it's a cute snap, and I'll bet her parents would like a copy if I knew them!)
Finally, if you're a history geek too, there's a terrific little podcast series called "Apollo 11: What We Saw", produced by Esoteric Radio Theatre. Four episodes long, it's well worth listening to. Might make the holiday travel a little more fun. ;)
