The best place I can think of to view the night sky is smack in the middle of the King Ranch. A good fifty miles in all directions of no lights. Very dark. When I moved to Brownsville from Houston I almost drove off the road three times because I was trying to stargaze and drive!
I don't know if I'd cruise out there for the Leonids. Maybe I'll just be content with the backyard. :) Deb in TX --- frank theriault <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hmmm..... > > Sounds like a great idea for a mid-week TOPDML > meet!! > > Where do you go to take pics, Brendan?
