Sorry to be so late in sendin this but takes a few days to catch up on all that has happened. Deloy and I went to St George to watch the re-entry but because we did not have the latest info about where people would be, we went on our own. We drove west towards Mesquite and exited at Littlefield. There was a large parking lot on the north side of the freeway where we set up our cameras and thought we took some pictures but mine were blank (We don't know why because there were some pictures of the dawn sky with Venus and those didn't take either.) Deloy's pictures are still in his camera. (We wish now that we had been watching with binocs instead of taking pictures.) We then drove on to Mesquite for breakfast and was totally shocked to see the news on the TV as we walked through the casino. Couldn't believe it because just a short time earlier we had seen that shuttle fly over. We stayed in St George until Sunday morning and most of the time was watching the news about the Shuttle. Was proud of the coverage from those in Southern Utah and wish that we had been with one of the groups to watch it with others. Because this was our first time to watch a re-entry we did not know what to watch for but enjoyed seeing the passing-over. Hope to be able to see something similiar in the future. It has been enjoyable to read the comments here and see the pictures that others took. Thanks for your input and insight. Dave Dunn was mentioned in an article in the Davis County Clipper. Dave, have you seen the article in yesterday's clipper? We'll try to remember to bring it to next weeks OAS meeting. Karen and Deloy Pierce
