Jim, I would say anywhere away from the bricks away from the vehicles. Of course, I always set up near my vehicle then park it so I don't have to lift too much. In 2002, eveybody set up away from the cars and set up chairs, tripods, and telescopes in the center of the parking lot. Debbie

I think I'll be going for sure. Hopefully I'll be bringing the 15" but if not I'll bring the 4" refractor. I may be going out to Warner Valley tomorrow on a four-wheel drive excursion. I'll take a few pictures when I go out there. Debbie

We would love to come down for this star party, and would love to have our scopes there and take a look through your scopes. However, we are teaching an introductory telescope making class on Saturday Feb 21st, 10am at Pioneer Hall located at 1140 W. 7800 S. in West Jordan (across from Gardner Village). This class is free and open to the public. Anyone interested in the night sky, astronomy, telescopes, or mirror making is welcome to come. We will be discussing all of these topics but focusing mainly on telescope designs and mirror making techniques. I will put together an official announcement and send that to the list later today.

Rich Thanks for the notice. I would really like to go but I have scouts that night. I haven't heard much from you lately. Hope things are going well and that you have been busy working on your scope or something fun. I have tried to work on my scope but it has been too darn cold. I have managed to sand my tube some more and I will put a coat on it when the temprature get up above 65 degrees. It may be a while.
