Big moon rising over Kennedy Space Center

After a fun 10 days I said farewell to Marge, and headed northward.  Am now at Manatee Hammock in Titusville, on the Indian River directly across from Kennedy Space Center.  Tonight was the once-in-a-lifetime moon rising.  And what a view it was....  

Part of what made it so special was also being able to see the shuttle Endeavor as the moon was rising.  You can't see it in the daylight, but it is well lit and comes into view after the sun sets.  They are disassembling the shuttle Discovery at Kennedy Space Center now, and then I believe it will be shuttled off to a museum.
