Are you close to where the Shuttle will be piggy backing home for photo?
Lived out in the mojave some years ago. Was loading the kids into the car & it flew over the house ~ was a shame that I didn't have a camera. But was in the paper next day & I saved that.
That was cool stuff for the sons.

Edwards AFB is about an hour's drive or so. I had a few friends that ran down to see it land.
When is it leaving?

according to http://www.nasa.gov/home/hqnews/2007/jun/HQ_07142_Atlantis_landing.html
In 7-10 days, Atlantis will be transported approximately 2,500 miles from California to Florida on the back of a modified 747 jumbo jet. Once at Kennedy, Atlantis will be separated from the aircraft to begin immediate processing for its next flight, targeted for December 2007.
that was June 22 , so somewhere between June 28 and 1 July. There probably wont be firm date until a day or two before.
