A picture is worth a thousand words. You guys are doing such a great job turning a simple idea into a going concern. I am looking forward to being there for the first and many more Border Stargaze events.
Because we have so many fields to choose from - we are thinking of a dedicated field just for astrophotography (will check on the power issue - but should not be a problem).
Will post soon to confirm, or John (xstream) may beat me to answer your post.
Thinking of coming?
Cheers Petra

Unfortunately it's unlikely I'll be able to make this one - I already have something booked for June and my family is unlikely to want me gone again only 2 months later. But of course i'll keep it in mind and if things change, i'll be there!
Count me in, that's close enough to where I'll be living next year (Murrumbateman, near Yass) that it's only about 3 hours drive.
I'll bring the 13.1", and I'll probably have got around to buying a generator by then so I can get by without mains power, but I'd prefer mains power if it was available.
Being only an hour away atm from Albury Murphy's Law steps into the picture again.
I am moving to QLD in Feb '07 but would have loved to be able to go to this to finally meet everyone and introduce you all to my 12". Hopefully I can go to one of the numerous get togethers in QLD. Sorry all......
