Yes, they were extra-redneck. Kind of scary too. -- Joe ________________________________ From: Jay Eads <jayleads@gmail.com> To: Utah Astronomy <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Thursday, August 8, 2013 9:58 PM Subject: [Utah-astronomy] Sheena's looking for star gazing spots I remember a night at Lakeside about 2 years ago where Joe left to go home because he forgot something for his scope he needed. The rest of us were up and observing when about 11:30 or so, I don't remember the exact time, it may have been more like 12:00a.m. a truck pulled up from the dirt road that leads to the hills to the west. They pulled over, shinning their high beams on us, then pulled off the road and shut their lights off. I stood there for about 30 minutes watching them. We knew they were watching us, perhaps with night vision. Finally they got in their truck, heard the doors shut and they started up, turned on their brights and drove off. If I recall correctly, Joe passed them on the way in and had a quick conversation and they were rather redneck. I hear a banjo playing in the background. I have never felt unsafe at Lakeside or anywhere, just saying at Lakeside and the Pit I have run into an incidents like this at both sites. It's a shame people don't clean up after themselves though. _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy Send messages to the list to Utah-Astronomy@mailman.xmission.com The Utah-Astronomy mailing list is not affiliated with any astronomy club.
