The Eagle Has Landed...




”The Moonwalk” may have been around since the 1940’s, but when Apollo 11 landed forty years ago today, the first men walked on the moon.

that is how my parents remember my birthday. It was the fourth year after I was born. Thank God for that, I might never get a happy birthday on time

I remember that day - as a matter of fact, I had completely forgotten about the whole episode and the young lady involved until I started thinking back to where I was on that day. Jeez, it's been a long time since I thought about her. On the other hand, I'd better not reminisce too much. (wink) Gotta work, you know.

Oh, how I wish I had been alive to witness it! My mom remembers it and recounts her memories to me all the time!

I was only one, but I remember my Mom and Dad talking about all the Apollo missions and how American's were fascinated with the space program in the 60's.
