[sac-forum] Re: New Moon weekend

The short story - I vote for 5 Mile Meadow.  I had no problems with dew or mosquitoes and have enough clothes and sleeping bag to handle -20 deg F.  Howsomever, should the vote go for Hovatter, then there I'll be!

BTW, who was the considerate person (David Fredericksen?) that put my soda can on the back bumper of my truck before leaving Cherry Rd?  It stayed there all the way home and I discovered it this morning.

Observing satisfied,

Howdy SAC;

I would now like to start the discussion about the club star party for next weekend.  As I said at the club meeting, I think that going to 5 Mile Meadow is going to present the problem of cold temperatures and dew.  I still believe that.  By 10 PM at Cherry Road there was dew already forming.  Obviously that problem will only be worse at a higher altitude. 

My thought is that we have two reasonable choices:  Cherry Road again or stay on the desert floor at Hovatter Road.  If there are a few folks who don’t know where the Hovatter site is located, I will put the directions at the end of this email.  Basically, it is 100 miles from central Phoenix on I-10, about 25 miles this side of Quartzsite.
