Set up is 1pm, however, if you don't want to arrive that early, i'd say arrive
no later than 1:45, as long as you can be totally set up by 2pm for the first
viewer to be able to look through your scope at the sun. I'm only moving the
set up time to closer to start time because i want to be sure we don't roast
out there too long. If you can set up in 15 minutes, arrive 1:45.However, i
will only hold closer to the set up location parking spot up to 1:10pm. After
that, i will be doing my own set up and parking will be up to those arriving,
rather than those of us standing in parking spots closer to the set up
location, for those arriving with scopes to set up.
For those of you who haven't been there before....
If you arrive at bookmans within 10 minutes of the set up time, in this case
that would be 1pm,and you have a scope to set up, Rodney, William, and I stand
in the way of cars getting into the parking spots closest to the scope set up
location, or even the front of the store... So, if you arrive by 1:10pm, I will
have a space held for you, if one becomes available.
If you arrive after 1:10pm, it is up to you to find your own space to park and
you might get lucky, or you might be way down the parking lot, away from where
we are setting up.
Just something to think about.
So, let me know if you want me to hold a parking spot and be sure you are there
by 1:10pm. I'm not waiting longer than that, becuase i, too, have to get set up
and sometimes it takes me 20+ minutes to set up for this event. I have to wait
on the tables to come outside, and chairs, etc.
BYO chairs. BYO tables, in case we don't get tables handed to us. ByO drinks.
And no one leaves the area and their scope unattended without informing someone
else they are taking off to get cooled off in Bookmans, or they are headed to
to the bathroom. Be sure your equipment is being watched by someone you trust.
Sam, you can take breaks in Bookmans if needed. But be sure your stuff is being
watched while you are gone.
Everyone have a safe, fun day, today, and keep cool. Store up a bunch of
liquids in your body for Saturday. We will all need it.
I am not sure if we are doing dinner after Solar Day, together or not, but if
you want to, let me know so i can get it arranged. Where do you want to go?
Carlos O Briens?
The Philly place right there at Bookmans is very good food. Don't order their
fries. But the Philly cheese stakes are great.

PS I do need to know you are attending, so do your RSVP right
now.http://www.pasaz.org/forums/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=1653&day=2015-6-20

Mike should be attending the event this Saturday, and bringing 2 canopies for
us to hide under. Yes, we do need them. Too hot not to have them.

Terri, we need the canopy's. Is someone going to bring them so we can use them
for protection? Sam

I'm awaiting info from Katy. She doesn't have it on the site, yet. Grrrr.
That means we miss having it advertised as heavy as it could have been.
I prefer a max of 2 hours.

Terri, it looks like 114 degrees this Saturday.
Has bookmans given you the exact hours of the solar viewing? I think that noon
to 5 pm may be too brutal on the people and the telescopes and glass filters.

Terri, I showed Frank your photos. He is very familiar with the areas since he
was in charge of the wildflower trail for 2 years. He feels there will be
spaces for the scopes and presenters but because of the cactus, trees and
flowers each scope will have restricted views in certain directions. This area
is usually dark so it should be OK to show the night sky. Also there will be
large distances between scopes so the runner can help with communications. Take
care, Sam

Star Tours Team DBG Luminaria Team,
I just took a walk, this morning, in the 110+ degree heat, with Susan, through
the DBG area we are doing the Luminaria event and I have taken 28 photos of the
area which show you the set up locations, talking about directions that can be
seen the best from each location, what size scope should go into each location,
and the name of the location, so that when we do this event for DBG, we know
what we are doing, when, where.
You might want to check it out at this link:

I'm uploading photos to the PAS Photo Gallery right now, from the
"walk."
Have a super day!
