Measuring a property line in the Hudson Valley, 
Working along the east side of the Hudson River between Cold Spring and Beacon.
We finished our day and stopped for a Pint, news came on and we were stunned.

Sad day indeed,

Logger RK

Pulled into the logging job & land owners kid told me about it. But knowing the kid was known for smoking funny cigarettes I didn't believe him till I turned the radio on. Since on January 2nd that year my Father Passed Away at age 55 it's easy 2 remember. I thought to myself,1986 isn't starting out to good.

We were living at my grandparents house as my family was building a new house. I was at home from school since I had just had my tonsils removed. The launch was a big deal for us because a family friend was a teacher who had been in the final running to be on that shuttle. I remember waking up and watching it on TV. A tragedy for sure.
It seems I am a coarse thread bolt in a world of fine threaded nuts!

Making a living with a manual mill can be done!

I was at work in west central FL. Since we could see the launches from there, we all went outside to watch. I do remember it was very cold ( for FL). We knew when we saw it break up that something was wrong, and learned of the tragedy on the radio when we went back inside.
I hope my ship comes in before the dock rots!

Question: Are you telling us that in the good old days - you weren't good, and you weren't old.

When I left to go mark timber in the AM the launch was on hold due to low temp.
Got home about 4:45 and asked my daughters if they got the thing up.
Was stunned to hear about the explosion.

 I was there in the viewing area with my daughter who was 9 at the time. Tough lesson for her. Hell, it was tough on me.

     I was in college, and was also tutoring disadvantaged adults that were going to college.  I was in the office where the TV was, and we were watching.  It was so sad.
