Peter, Tim Jones and I will support this event. It's being held in the
"correct" part of town - in our neck of the woods.
See you there.

I know this is on the other side of town, but just checking to see if anyone
would be interested in volunteering for an event this Friday.
As chairman of McDowell Sonoran Conservancy's public hiking program, I have
been working with our naturalist on an astronomy event. This event is part
of the Family Friday Sunset Series.
