[Chaos-l] Saturday night- location?

I am game for  the dark site.  The darker skies will show us more Perseids.
Also, the weather maps show clearing coming from the north.

Or, if no-one else heads up that way, I will go to Farrington. 

Sunset is just after 8, and it astronomical twilight ends about 9:30.  So we
should probably meet at East Chapel Hill high at 8 PM if we are going out.

Please let me know.

Steve

I assume from my correspondence with a few people that nobody actually went
to the dark site tonight (Friday).  The calendar lists Saturday as the rain
date for the dark site, although Saturday is also listed as a Farrington
night.

So, will anyone be going to the dark site for Saturday night?  And if anyone
is going to Farrington, will you be to the left, or the right?  For what
it's worth, there seems to be far more car traffic to the right.

The clear sky clocks look promising, so I'll be out at one place or the
other depending on everyone else's plans.

Take care,
Michael
