Teams Location: Brantley Lake SP
The night temps were nice enough to sleep with the windows
open again. By 1000 it was AC time
again.
Yesterday the head ranger came by and gave me an invite
to a star party for that night. It
sounded good and the temps were dropping fast so it should be comfortable. Of
course there are no mosquitos out here in the no water land. About 2100 the OFM
Stargazing Team headed for the telescope site by the kids playground.
My goodness there was a lot of kids on that equipment. The
telescope folks were taking their equipment down already. The story was that
the rain clouds way over there were too close and the equipment owner was
afraid that his equipment might get damp. SO the star party was
eliminated. No rain got to us last night
or even close. Oh well. It was worth the price.
Speaking of playground equipment, here is a picture of
the children’s playground.
Yes my fingerprints did get put on the trolley that goes
back and forth as you hang on it. That
was fun until my shoulders screamed in my ear.
Then the fun was over.
Back behind the playground is an open spot where the star
non-party was held. And just back of that is the group shelter that can be
rented for events. It is a very nice shelter and kept very clean by the park
volunteers.
When the OFM Grocery Shopping Team got back to the Castle
this afternoon the temperature showing on the Truck’s gage was 99 degrees. From about noon on it was too hot for the wimp
OFM to be out in the sun. Keeping cool
in the AC is another way of trying to have tooooo much fun. TheOFM.
Go north young man, go north. Where the sparkling waters flow an' ya don't need no stink'n a/c.

DeleteI like star parties and sometimes hold my own just for me.
