Went back to the same spot last week and viewed a launch! We were at EG Simmons outside Tampa, and heard about the launch on the news We drove over there in a rental car for the 10:59 pm launch. The place was deserted. We are 1 for 3. Next I want to see a Falcon Heavy launch.

I've stayed at EG Simmons numerous years. How is it now? Crowded? All the restrooms open & working?

We liked it. Brand new bath house where we were in the west side. Only problem was weak internet. Really too slow to use. I need some kind of booster or antenna. Sites were full but didn’t seem crowded.

Watched a launch from Pad 39A earlier this month. Playalinda Beach #1 is closed but we parked at the next beach to the north Playalinda 2 (very close to Playalinda 1). Walked up the beach past Playalinda 1 to where they blocked us from going further. I understand it's better to watch elsewhere if a launch occurs at another pad.
