Re: Blue Moon Festival @ Hunt Club Farms
Mark,
It is listed correctly as the 28th on the NSN calendar. Where is the confusion? Did we list it incorrectly at the meeting?

Re: Eclipse reservation
The Jarvis twins and myself will be going to Santee, SC. It looked to me to be the closest point from VB to the line of totality. I made my reservations on March 1 and got two nights at Rodeway Inn

Re: Wallops Launch Thursday ~9 PM 6/15/17
Anyone see anything from this tonight? I didn't see a notice that it was scrubbed again. Also looked and looked for the launch but did not see that either. But we saw lots of haze, etc. around, so

Never met him but I have his laser collimator and a sling. The astro community has lost a fine man.
