A wasted afternoon?

I don't think so.

 

My daughter and son-in-law came down from Denver to clean up the empty house before we close on Tuesday,  They'll be finishing up tomorrow.

 

They told me to go back to my hootch because I'd just be in the way.

 

So I went shopping and got back to the hootch just before noon.

 

I normally don't watch TV during the day but I popped a bag of microwave popcorn and sat down in the recliner to see what might be on TV.  'The Right Stuff' was just starting.  Hadn't seen it in years so I sat back and spent the next couple of hours enjoying it.  It's still a great movie!

Great Movie of Great Men in a bold and exciting time, where would mankind be today if we kept up such a relentless pace. 

I try to watch the movie at least once every few years to remind myself of the sheer bravery of the folks of that era

 

On a similar but different note I also watch Band of Brothers once a year usually around Christmas to remember the bravery and sacrifice made, such a shame.
