About Me, and my obsession..
January 8th, 2008
I am a forty-something year old frustrated wanna-be astronaut. I grew up with the Apollo missions going strong. and I was sure by the time I was 30 we would be living on Mars… or at the very least, the moon.
I believe the Apollo A7L, aside from the mighty Saturn V that carried it, is the biggest advancement in technology of the twentieth century. Its always been a dream to put one on and step of the ladder of a LEM.
David,
I came home tonight from the Kennedy Space Center (which I visit a lot). I got the chance to see Endeavor on the launchpad and Atlantis flew right over the condo I was staying in at Daytona Beach. I had a great day and got home and did a search for the Apollo Helmet that I always wanted. I almost fainted when I found your website.
I’ve donated paintings in the past to the Astronaut Scholarship Foundation. Check out my website. It’s still not finished yet. I’m interested in maybe buying a helmet from you. Would you be open to also trading two Gliceés of my paintings as well as cash? Just a thought.
Great job on the suits. Keep up the great work and it’s a pleasure to find someone who is passionate about the Apollo space suits.
