One more weekend in the Meadow is looking unlikely. 40% chance of rain is a
long ways to drive just to get clouded out when Antennas is only an hour
drive. If weather permits I'll do a one-nighter at Antennas on Saturday -
perhaps head all the way out to the 'advanced dark' and 'cone of silence
quiet' of KOFA Cabin. I bid adieu to Fredericksen Meadow until next year.
If I had already purchased my new astronomer carrying case (aka travel
trailer) it would be a different story. The claims of 45º for an overnight
low were extremely optimistic when I was there last weekend.
