Up, up and away

As the Friday sun was setting I was out amongst my brugmansia plants looking for blooms to pollinate.  I just happened to glance towards the east and saw a rocket heading skyward.  I'm only about 60 miles from the space center and as long as the sky is clear, launches are easily seen.
