We have experienced amasing synchs related to the movie October Sky and our trip and I am writing the story now,




So we get to Ohio and drive from Dayton to East Liverpool we played with Bugs and then when the son in law shows up and you mention fireworks he gets this look on his face like


Enthusiasm

Here is the pic from the movie

Here is the pic of Pam's brother and Son in Law working with homemade cannons.

So then they say you wanna go for a little ride to the Fireworks Store? So were all off in two cars to


to get a few fireworks

So we ended up shooting off rockets like in the movie.
We also went to the Greyhound Station which was in the movie


Because Pam's son was off to North Carolina to visit friends. He also was working on getting scholarships like n the movie.
Then Pam and I were off to West Virginia to the very area where the boys in the movie were from near my father's town.


Also much of the father/son expectations in West Virginia were played out in this movie and relates to even my father and I.
Another synch with this movie was that I worked in the military as a Pershing Missile Technician

Pershing II missile I was a 21L pershing tech

Pic of Mist in Pineville where my father went ot Tech School
My father was always "Dreaming outside the local beliefs" as most grow up to work in the coal mines in WV. And many felt that electronics was evil when I was young visiting the area. Now this is a quote from the movie and also sounds like the passion of my father.

Quote:

Do something Great with Your lives
Sometimes You can't listen to what others say. You just have to listen inside.

 

Quote:

Now you see that Homers mission to do something great



Also related to this movie was a poem I quote about "Men are Mines" by Rumi

In the movie they stated

 http://www.homerhickam.com/miners/

Quote:

I know the mine like a know the man



Inspiration and Enthusiasm were related to the Passion of this movie, my father and his inspiration.

 

A quote from my father

Quote:

Most people grow old within a small circle of ideas, which they have not discovered for themselves. There are perhaps less wrong-minded people than thoughtless
