Note:  All of the pictures have been shrinked down to fit the page size.  To see the BIGGER version of the same picture, simply download the picture and open up with your graphics editor.  Most of these pictures are actually somewhere in the range of 1024x768 (I cropped the pictures and also changed the lighting in some cases).

This page needs to be viewed at 1024x768 resolution or higher.   If you don't have a 17" monitor, I feel bad for you...

Mvc-510x.jpg (99800 bytes) These pictures are taken during the tram tour.  They took us by the various rockets and what they look like.   As you can tell, the day looked like it was going to rain.  Luckily, it didn't.  I got a quick shot of Tammy with the Johnson Space Center plaque.  It's too bad that her face is too dark for the picture.  There wasn't time to take another picture since the tram was moving.  Hey, I think I did pretty well with these pictures since the tram was moving.
