A shout out to Australia.
Hi all,
I am a new member from the USA and would like to introduce myself. I have been into amateur astronomy and astroimaging here in Arizona for about 10 years. My wife and I had the opportunity in Jan 2006 to visit Australia and friends. It was a wonderful trip as we were able to visit Tasmania, Sydney and up north of Brisbane to Eumundi and Noosa. A side trip out of Sydney took us to Goulburn and the Magellan guest observatory for 2 nights of wonderful Downunder observing. What a dream! Well Teri, my wife, and I are returning Downunder this March very close to the new moon and we would very much like to hang out with some fellow amateurs for some observing. I will also be bringing an astrotrac and camera for some imaging if possible. Can anybody steer us towards any star parties out of Sydney around the dates of March 19-20th? We will be staying with good friends in Green Valley around that time. Thanks for reading and hopefully I can meet up with some fellow iceinspacers in the near future.
Regards,
Ken Tydeck
