Fall Observing Trip

[FaithJ]

I'm thinking of going to the South-west US in the Fall (October or even November New Moon time) for an observing trip, either to Texas, New Mexico or Arizona. Trouble is, I haven't decided where to go. Any suggestions?

Thanks

I've never been there Faith, but you might check out New Mexico Skies.

Or you could Come to Fort Davis and observer with me on the 48.

You should think about it Faith. I'm thinking about the same time frame too.

Now THAT is very tempting! I would love to if I can.

I remembered, earlier today, that my car's annual inspection is due next month , so I'll see how that goes before looking into air fares to the US. I don't want to be in the (not unique!) position of paying out a few hundred GBP on an airline ticket and then having to find another few hundred GBP for repairs to my car. I'll know more soon because I'll get it checked out well before inspection time.

That said, the car is only five years old and has only just over 27,000 miles on it, which is practically nothing so hopefully it'll be okay.
