We had our first impromptu Star party of the year on the first night of 2025. I got at alpha ridge park at 4:30 pm and closed it around 7:30 pm. Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate as clouds came in and out repeatedly due to the fast winds, giving us only a few patches of clear sky every now and then. We had 5 members showing up, and 2 of them were first time attendees. Welcome to both and I hope to see you around often.
Despite the clouds, we had some nice conversations about equipment so I think it was a good time after all.
We have a snow storm coming but I’ll be looking out for the next good night to have another star party.
