Moonless conditions for Perseids this summer


Hi all,


Since Baja has loads of light pollution free skies get our your lawnchairs and enjoy this years show. Heres a good guide:

Here in San Francisco (that's California) we have not seen the sky for two months here near the beach. A sweltering 58º today and with the wind it seems colder. Summer in San Francisco!:barf:

CPNM


Can't make it to Baja for this celestial event but plan on camping at the Baja of central California, CPNM. It's just like Baja only there's no desert, sea, cantinas...but there is a lot of wide open space and dark skies!

Anyone care to join us?
