Eight days after leaving Earth...
After traveling nearly 1 million miles (1.6 million km), orbiting the Moon, and making history with the first human landing on another world, Apollo 11 finally returned home.
On July 24, 1969, the Command Module Columbia splashed down safely in the Pacific Ocean.
For millions watching around the world, it wasn't just the end of a mission.
It was proof.
Proof that humans could leave Earth...
Reach another world...
Walk on its surface...
And come home safely.
As soon as the capsule landed, recovery teams rushed in. Because scientists didn't yet know whether the Moon might carry unknown microorganisms, the astronauts were placed into a Mobile Quarantine Facility—a modified trailer where they would spend the next several days before meeting their families.
The mission had lasted 8 days, 3 hours, 18 minutes, and 35 seconds.
Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins returned not only as astronauts......
A lil-bit-o-fast food celebration and trivia:
NATIONAL DRIVE-THRU DAY
National Drive-Thru Day on July 24 recognizes an innovation conveniently going strong today. The drive-thru reached its iconic zenith in the 1950s but stayed strong through the '60s, '70s and beyond. People have enjoyed this service since the 1930s.

The ease of dropping off and picking up an item without getting out of the car may be something we take for granted. Of course, many studies point to the benefits and drawbacks associated with using the drive-thru.
The first and most obvious benefit that comes to mind is the ease of dropping off or picking up and item. Whether it's the mail, a prescription or the dry cleaning, pulling up to a window or a slot and passing the article through is eminently easier than even finding a parking spot. Then, if we have children, we collect our children, our item and wait in line. After waiting, we usually search for our parking spot while juggling children and once again pile them back into the car. When multiple stops are involved,...
WEEKEND GUTTER THEME
Thanks to @Stever1130 we are reminded that 55 years ago the Moody Blues released "Every Good Boy Deserves Favour," a magnificent album that would become a favorite around the world. It's message, it's story and the amazing musicianship on this opus remain fresh and inspiring to many of us still today.
In my efforts to understand the seeming insanity of the country, the globe and my personal world as well, the music on this album tells the tale of my struggle and gives me pause to reflect on the past, present and future that I face.
We haven't done this in quite a while, so I am suggesting a musical theme - The Moody Blues - for this weekend's sharing enjoyment. Please keep it to one song per post, so that everyone who wants to will be able to share, and tell us a little about what the song you have chosen means for you. Steve shared a link to the full album in his post last night if you'd like to listen to the whole album.
I am starting with "The Story ...
