I wanted to drive up to Cherry Springs State Park in PA, but then I realized it's probably the weekend for the Black Forest Star Party. Yup it is. Good thing I checked because I wouldn't be allowed in. They fill up very early. One of the best spots in the country east of the Mississippi.
So, now I have to find a place closer to home to try the milky way. What equipment are you using?
Problem of this century. I live in a relatively small city compared to many American cities but I still need to travel 3 hours to get rid of the light pollution.
