July 20, 1969: It was great to be alive on the day that Apollo 11 landed on the moon!







It was July 20, 1969 or many years ago today. 

Like most families, we sat around the TV and watched Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walk on the moon.

I can remember much of it, from Walter Cronkite's countdown to the lunar landing to President Nixon's speech to the astronauts.

We remember Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins and congratulate the crew and everyone down here who made this amazing mission possible.

Wonder whatever happened to that US flag and landmark that we left up in the moon?

Wonder what the next visitors will say about us?
