You're lucky to be able to see the launch (when it happens) from your house. Take some pics and post them up (even if they might be from a distance).

The best launches are at night, by boat. Seen most of them but these days the traffic around here has become such a pain in the a$$ before and after a launch I just stay home. Took me 45 minutes to get across the bridge last night coming from Merritt Island. It seems the closer to the end of the shuttle program the more people are coming over to watch one.

My Father-in-law lives in Leesburg and we drove over to Titusville for a launch. It was the coolest thing, the sound , the rumble that goes through you...and all the car alarms that go off
If you can get to see one it's worth the trip.

flasunshine1, we lived in Crystal River for 16 years. I loved when the shuttle went up at night, because there were no city lights to brighten up the sky. That sonic boom will scare the he** out of you if you didn't remember when it was landing! LOL
DH and I went to see the first shuttle launch after the Challenger disaster. It was awesome, although the love bugs were a PITA. They seem to congregate in the marsh/farm land over there.
Now that we're in 'bama and an hour from Huntsville (NASA and Space Camp), we get the launch live on TV, just like we did in FL.

I am 200 mi south in Ft Lauderdale area. If there are not too many clouds we can follow it and watch the SRBs drop off. Night launches are the best!
The best and clearest was the Challenger, on a very cold and clear day.
