Even this "Giant Step for Mankind" didn't really matter enough to overtake my grandmother's priorities of her day. I can never be reminded of the first moon landing without remembering how frustrated my Grandmother Addie Turner Leftwich was at the television coverage that day. The historic moment in American history was met with Grandma's comment in a telephone conversation with her sister Ida Gassaway on her phone on down the road toward Glasgow, "I just can't believe they'd put this old moon landing stuff on over our program!"

Reporter and her family climb Africa's tallest mountain By Kirby Adams, Louisville Courier Journal At 16,000 feet above sea level, with a cold relentless wind battering the orange nylon walls of our tent, I watched a guide carry the ailing hiker off and disappear into the cloud line below. In that instant I found myself questioning my decision to bring the three most important people in my life -- my family -- on this mountaineering expedition. Mount Kilimanjaro is one of the famous Seven Summits -- the name given to the highest point on each continent. It is also the tallest free-standing mountain in the world. To get to there, my husband John Grantz and I traveled to Tanzania in East Africa with our daughters, Elliott, 21, and Jordan, 19. At the age when our daughters have become busy with their own adult lives, we saw this as a last opportunity to experience an epic family adventure.
