T-minus 26hrs and counting down.
The weather looks promising for the event, short of excellent, but good enough to give guests a real look at what dark skies reveal. No telling how many telescopes will be there - upwards of 20 I would imagine. I'm bringing two, because I just couldn't decide which one. Should be chaos for me, lol.
Most all of the preparations are done, the gear is tuned, batteries fresh, light shield fence ready to go up, foil hat ready.... Let's all hope for clear skies :-)
Bring a jacket. Standing outside at night will chill you if you're not prepared. Or you could huddle like penguins?
Side note: Iridium flare at 7:47:58 PM in the SSE sky - Look for it.
