International Space Station and Penny Postcards

Greetings..........

I am such a space nut so whenever I have a chance to see the International Space Station
fly by, I'm checking the heavens for it. If you are interested in the sighting times and dates
go to this website: www.nasa.gov On the left side of the page, look for "satellite sighting
information", click on it and follow the directions.

Here are a few dates and times:

Friday, July 10th 9:44 PM Going from W to NE
Friday, July 10th 11:23 PM Going from N to NE

Sat., July 11th 10:12 PM Going from NNW to NE
Sat., July 11th 11:48 PM Going from N to NE

Sun., July 12th 1.21 AM Going from NW to NW
Sun., July 12th 10:37 PM Going from N to NE

Penny Postcards
What did your town look like, according to Penny Postcards?
Check out your old stomping grounds, during the times of the penny postcard. The price was raised to 2 cents on January 1,1952. Click on the state and then on the county name to see old penny postcards from that area . . . pretty neat.
