I don't take notes so I will likely forget to include at least as much as I remember to. Perhaps others can add to the list.
Almost all warm water flows to an ocean.
Florida is the sunshine state.
Florida is the lightning capital of the world.
It has wild hogs and rattlesnakes.
The Treasure Island hotel (think Captain Kiďd) was just south of Cape Canaveral.
Forrest and Peggy lived in Florida at one point.
Peggy is seen holding a small shark in a picture in TTOTC.
Canaveral is named after the Indigenous peoples that carried "canes" of walking sticks.
Cape canaveral is bordered by the Banana River (grab every banana) and the Indian river, on old maps shown as India for the area.
To get there you take hwy 1 to 520 to 3. Forrest had a 1 hour surgery that turned into 5 and the doctor told him he had a 20 percent chance of living 3 years.
The area code for the area is 289...17 squared.
The apollo rockets sat on a launchpad connected to an umbilical tower. The umbilical tower was exactly the same height as the cable dropped to Forrest to pull him out if the jungle. To the foot.
Some rockets that were shorter sat on a "milk stool".
The space race was the great chase of it's time.
Prior to the Saturn rockets were the Jupiter rockets. Some words Forrest bends a little. He likes to sit by his Juniper fire.
Forrest talks about having a hot chocolate. The area is Cocoa and Cocoa beach.
The poem starts AS I go alone in there. The Apollo Saturn rockets were AS rockets.
The fuel was a mix of Kerosene.
The early Apollo test was known as Project Highwater.
The picture of Forrest looking up at the moon. The moon has a dove on it "we came in peace for all mankind".
The chest was full or eagles and double eagles.
The earth is a blue marble. Orbiting the moon was like a yo'yo.
Forrest speaks of Buzz Aldrin. Peggy was inside watching dancing with the stars. Buzz was a contestant on dancing with the stars.
Astronauts don't wear shoes in the spacecraft.
The rockets stages separate much like Skippys car when being pulled by the Buffalo.
The Russians sent a dog to space that died on the trip.
Don't expect Forrest to put an X on the spot. SpaceX now uses the Apollo launch pad.
The early apollo rocket was a lemon that caught fire and killed the astronauts, kind of like it was built by the lowest bidder.
Forrest prayed for c's and D's. There was to be launchpad 39 C and D built but they never were.
The rockets were taken not far from where they were built by the CRAWLER. The map show the vertical assembly plant (buried standing up) and at least three spots with TEA as part of the name.
The moon is a place where imagination itself had never set foot.
An overlay map shows the Kennedy Space Center as being in the block and quadrant numbers matching the plot Forrests father is buried.
One of the primary goals of Apollo 11 was to collect rocks.
Are we in the right state of mind...perhaps a state of Tranquillity.
The Eagle had to fly past a boulder field before landing.
Forrest flight where he covered Philadelphia with his thumb...he was flying at the height known as the Armstrong limit.
Time magazine speaks of the Apollo 11 as "tarrying a scant..." before liftoff.
All features on the moon are named in Latin.
There is a memorial to fallen astronaughts on the moon, laying down like it has fallen over.
Only Apollo 11 had a sign (like Principal Fenn perhaps).
Astronauts had to be post secondary graduates.
The lunar module looked like a frog with bulbous eyes.
Astronauts descended a ladder to the moon.
The Sea of Tranquility is a lake with no fish.
Forrest tells Jackie her husband was a great man, kennedy made the great we will go to the moon by the end of the decade speech.
Early in the space race Russia was kicking ass. US confidence was at an all time low.
Several helicopters surrounded the splashdown and pulled astronauts up out of the Pacific.
Apollo X was command module Charlie Brown and lunar module Snoopy.
The head of the Apollo program was von Braun, perhaps a bent version of Brown?
Astronauts, in particular early ones, were mostly test pilots. They did survival training in the same place Forrest did. They were of similar age.
One of the scrapbooks is "Fly Me to the Moon".
So my WWWH is Cape Canaveral, Florida and my crazy theory is that the Thrill of the Chase is really about the space race. Perhaps a story where it was important to tell the truth, but not the whole truth.
