Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?

Drove the Blazer around last night for a couple of hours on a beautiful FULL MOON night. About 75deg. & pretty and clear. Drove through Canaveral National Seashore which borders the N.side of the Space Center. I was thinking about nearly 50 years ago guys blasted off from right here to go walk around on that big ol' Moon. Hard to believe they did that in '69 just a couple of years before my Blazer was made.
Nice piece of road but I don't go fast out there 'cause there are some BIG wild hogs... and lots of smaller ones.
