Sat.night 5/27/06
Much like friday night I sat up, the wind was still blowing but not as strong as the night before, but still as cold. Not much was going on, until near 8:45 a lady showed up, she is a reporter for the Mojave Desert News and wanted to see what this Sidewalk Astronomy was like. Dur the next hour I told her about my scopes, why I did this and why I had picked this spot. Showed her both Jupiter and Saturn in a 10mm EP. While we talked another two guys walked over to see the views, she talked a bit to them, they where new to the area by about 3 months and they'll been seeing me sitting out there. She watched as 3 older teens stopped by and two of them had a look see, the 3rd I think was to 'High' to know what was going on. She took some photos of me as I was aiming the scope to show someone Saturn. So I'll have to watch that paper which I get anyway, to see if she does get a story printed. By the time she was leaving, the winds had picked up and even foster freeze was empty of anyone, so I packed up and came home to pour some hot coffee into my frozen body. -- The Lone Sidewalk Astronomer of Rosamond Telescope Buyers FAQ http://home.inreach.com/starlord Sidewalk Astronomy www.sidewalkastronomy.info Astronomy Net Online Gift Shop http://www.cafepress.com/astronomy_net In Garden Online Gift Shop http://www.cafepress.com/ingarden Blast Off Online Gift Shop http://www.cafepress.com/starlords Astro Blog http://starlord.bloggerteam.com/ |
