If you folks don't mind, I might join you (I still need to check with the wife). However, I've only been to the Pit N Pole once and I don't remember the way. How does one get there? Thanks.
OK, I'll make the call; Rich because you're the only one of us with stated targets we'll give you the priority. Let's go back to the Pit N Pole. It should be a good 10 degrees warmer than the Gravel Quarry, it might dew-up, but we shouldn't get a frost and skies look fairly good till after midnight when the transparency should degrade a little, although it still won't be bad. I'm going to be away from e-mail for a while.

Robert (et al),
I'd be interested in either one, but my strong preference would be Pit 'n' Pole, despite the dew warning and the fact that I DO have to work tomorrow!
It's closer to home (for me), and has a much better southern horizon, and that's where I plan to spend most of my observing time hunting galaxies in Virgo.
What say ye?
