this year.  I would like to get in a couple of extra days of observing in
for the 2800+ miles it takes for the round trip.  Is it permissible to
arrive on Wednesday or Thursday without wearing out our welcome with Mr.
Farnsworth?

viewing site, state park, commercial RV park, etc., that you'd recommend
away from the Phoenix and other major metropolitan light bubbles?  If I have
cell-phone and internet access, I may stay up to 3 weeks total time away
from home.  I need to work at least a few days in the middle of my trip, to
economize on vacation days used.
