I think they should have removed them all and not put any replacements in - poor people don't deserve trees.

Last night it was moving at 2mph and was 2 hours late getting to its destination.

I'm thinking I won't make it up there tomorrow to one of the viewing locations. Is anyone here thinking of going?

Power outages tonight as they remove certain transformers so the Shuttle can cross the 405 on Manchester Blvd. Oh, and my co-worker missed a doctor's appointment and was very late to work because she did not have the proper security clearance to leave her own neighborhood. Nice.

Delays were fairly normal for the shuttle program as well.

Hey, good point.

At least it's unlikely to explode while making this trip.

(I hope that's not in bad taste considering the past horrible events, but it was always a real possibility).

This has got to be the money shot of the parade....

The shuttle in front of Randy's donuts, where I don't believe I've ever been. How are their donuts?

Apparently there was plenty of public viewing of the "parade". It's a shame I had no idea where to even begin to go to view and I missed the whole thing.

Disappointed doesn't even begin to describe how bummed out I am over missing this.

YES!

I drove up the 405 the morning after it passed. Going under Manchester, I saw the donut, and thought (possibly said outloud to no one), "PLEASE tell me someone got that shot.

Thank you for the link.
