The boys a few months ago noticed a cool spider web in our back yard. One morning while the morning dew was still clinging to the web, I went out and took some photos of the spider making its web. I got some decent photos. They can be viewed at the leucht.com image gallery (http://www.leucht.com/photos-new/) under the nature category (http://www.leucht.com/photos-new/index.php/NaturePhotos)

STS-126 launch
We got a car pass and watched Endeavour launch last night on STS-126 from the NASA Causeway viewing site. It was awesome!
Elijah waits patiently for the launch. We got there almost 2 hours beforehand. Notice the nearly full moon out the window. A beautiful and clear night for a launch.
And we have liftoff! The picture doesn’t do it justice, because it lights up the night sky as if it were daylight!
We could see it almost all the way down to the horizon. Very cool.

Peter Pan at the Cocoa Village Playhouse
The shows at the Cocoa Village Playhouse are always awesome, but Peter Pan is going to be extra special since they are actually flying numerous cast members through the air in the show. This is as close to Broadway as you’ll see in community theatre, I think. (full disclosure: I am not paid by CVP, but I do try to help them out by building sets when I am able.)
Florida Today put together a very nice little video showing the Peter Pan kids learning to fly. Check out the video below. Just click on the play button to watch it.
[Sorry, folks. Florida Today removed the video.]
Just call 321-636-5050 for CVP tickets or for more information.

Online Store Open for Business
Why would a family website like leucht.com open up an online store? Well, I’m sort of a geek if you hadn’t figured that out already. 🙂 What kind of merchandise is offered at this online store? I have a whole suite of Dee Mack Class of 1988 related merchandise, including the famous 20 year reunion DVD and various refrigerator magnets and photo prints.
I also have a DVD full of old silent movies that my grandfather, Kurt William Leucht, and the Peoria Cinema Club created back in the 1950’s. Then there are a whole bunch of different types of items with my almost famous lemon blossom photo emblazoned on them.
Then there are some books that we have written and have decided to share. And lastly but not leastly, we have some really cool t-shirts that proudly advertise for this fine family website. I make very little profit, if at all, from the sales of this merchandise. It’s mostly just for fun. Enjoy! Here is a link to the leucht.com online store.

At the risk of embarrassing myself, I went ahead and uploaded a full set of growing up photos of myself to my photo gallery: http://www.leucht.com/photos-new/index.php/kurt
Enjoy!
