Following up on the idea of camping at the Pine Mountain observatory, the usual suspects minus a few, decided to first camp at the Newberry Lakes and then move to Pine Mountain for a night at the observatory.

All accounted.

The next day, moving to Pine Mountain.

Don’t ask, I don’t remember what that was all about. Honyockers? Who knows? Anyway, the magic hour of the day arrived.

Beautiful place for a sunset.

Nice people and a nice moment.

The long and the short is that the next day, when we were scheduled to get the observatory tour, the sky got cloudy – no stars for us. I will need to go back that way.
