CRS-11 Launch Campaign Thread

Jacksonville Beach: Thursday happy hour party - found a new spot. This year I've decided to devote more attention to going out to witness the launches - even if they aren't all the beautiful 1:30am ones I watched last year.

Thursday hot spot: Neptune Beach - Sliders Seafood Grille http://www.slidersseafoodgrille.com/ - Thursday night is the great deal there. "Every Thursday evening from 5pm till 8pm." - we are talking $5 for a dozen oysters on the half shell and local Mayport shrimp. I am in no way affiliated, I just did my homework ;)

No wifi internet at this place, but I can hotspot and share my 8" tablet for video stream. I also have an extra set of binoculars to watch the launch. Sunlight, even at evening washes out the launch after it gets pretty high, only about 2 minutes of viewing before the evening sunlight kills the view.

The place is a total zoo for their special Thursday night according to the staff, so I'll be there right at opening 5:00pm to start reading reddit comments and check for delays etc. Plan on stepping out at 5:45 for the final minutes countdown.
