Hi all. For those who can't take a two-day astronomy safari, tonight
promises to be a decent one at Farrington. I plan to be there from
shortly before dark, and stay until after the "Paddling Under the
Stars" crowd disperse. According to the Clear Sky Chart, there's a
block of yucky skies due to arrive around midnight, so it wouldn't
make sense to stay much beyond that anyway. They hadn't mowed the
grass as of last week, so i'm currently planning to be at a new
location: down the east ("left") fork, on the paved parking area. I
observed there last week (Hi Kumar!) and enjoyed the very low southern
horizon.
If you'd like to get out, but were worried about security despite the
apparent clarification of last week's incident, this would be a good
time to get out.
J.
