[AZ-Observing] Saturday Night at Cherry Road

Howdy all;
I know that the server was down for a while, this message should test that.

I have had a sick couple of days and to be honest I just don't know if I have 
it within me to go scoping tomorrow.  However, it does seem that several folks 
are looking to head out for Cherry Road on Saturday night.  If so, leave by 
5:30 or so, that way you can get a good spot and enjoy the night.

If the "az observing" server is back up and you get this message twice, I 
apologize.  If it is not, then use the "reply to all" button and we can still 
hold this conversation among the usual gang.

Directions to the Cherry Road West observing site

Take I-17 north for about 70 miles from Phoenix.  Take the Cherry Road exit and 
turn left (west) over the freeway.  This is also Hwy. 169.  Go west about 5 
miles, just beyond mile marker 10.  There is a sign which says "Cherry 6", at 
the sign turn left (south).  Note:  this is the opposite way that the arrow on 
the sign points.  You will be on a pretty well-maintained dirt road.  However, 
there are some natural speed bumps, so drive slow.  The site is located 5/10 of 
a mile south of the hard surface of Cherry Road.  The observing field is on the 
right, through a gate.  Please keep this cattle gate closed if you are the last 
to leave.

Clear Skies, whether I am there or not;
