...their self-contained, $13,000 Cortez bus camper, while their three children splashed in the swimming pool at Florida's Fiesta Key Resort. Near by, Joseph Haigh and his wife took the sun beside their Dodge camper, a 27-ft.-long bus that, when fully equipped with stainless-steel galley, stall shower, toilet and bunks for six, can cost more than $16,000. "We're land cruisers now," says Haigh, who gave up a lifetime of boating after it got to be too much work...
...units containing kitchen and bathroom. One by one, the units were lowered by a 250-ft. crane through holes cut in the roof and upper floors, and placed inside. Thus, each apartment got a brand-new, modern service core, including a 20-in. gas range, 10-cu.-ft. refrigerator, stainless-steel sink and complete bathroom with tub, shower, porcelain-finished bowl and toilet...

At 1 p.m. on Friday last week, Grissom, White and Chaffee strolled casually into the gantry elevator on Pad 34, rose swiftly to a sterilized "white room," then ambled along the 20-ft. catwalk to the stainless-steel hull of the capsule, now secured to the Saturn rocket inside the launching complex. The craft was like an old friend, for they had spent hours in it during vacuum-chamber tests in the Houston Space Center, had run through identical launch-simulation procedures several times before...
