I'm coming Fri, Sat & Sun nights (first weekend). A veritable Astrofest virgin - lookin' forward to my first time too.
I'll have to stick my name on my new IIS beanie (if that's not too promiscuous! )

It's taking 2 trips for me to set up.

Note to self - when next you buy a new car, make sure it's bigger than the previous one.

I told you h0ugh, leave half of it at my place. It will be fine, and then you won't have to cart it up and down the coast each year. You know you only use most of it at Astrofest anyway so you won't miss it much. And by leaving it here you will help to spread the love of astronomy to so many other people.....especially me.
