There were many launches from Vandenberg AFB I witnessed from San Diego. Here's hoping you get a great sight.

Thanks Use to watch the shuttle launch and really didn't expect to see this one since it is considerably smaller. I was great seeing a launch again, sorry about the clouds in your area

Yeah, we ‘ve gotten to see a few launches here. It’s always been exciting to be able to spot them. Been far too long.
Thank you, we were really looking forward to it.
