Re: Skywatchers' Journal

i was driving on a one lane state road through the cow pastures and drug fields of florida last night going about 100 and a shooting star wobbled and decayed above me and dissapeared. i love how random those are.

Re: Skywatchers' Journal

Oh and careful: there's gators on the road late at night. Same rule applies for gators as deer on the road: don't swerve, drive through it. It will do less damage to you, and you might get some nice shoes out of it in the bargain....

Cheers,
Buffy

Re: Skywatchers' Journal

Gators: I figured Florida...I've seen plenty when I've been there.

Boars: Same rule applies, but they're not as good a material for shoes.

100mph: Watch out for Smokies! And watch the ROAD! Especially if it appears to be moving!

Cheers!
Buffy

Re: Skywatchers' Journal

state roads are empty and straight, nothing to worry about!

ahhhh but honestly, i would never drive under conditions like that. i know exactly what would happen. i would think headlights are some mystical pathway and i would drive right into them. VERY BAD!

That's what the gators think too and that's why you have to watch out for them! And I've spent enough time to know that the Smokies do have their favorite spots to sit with their radar guns. I'm always very careful on the drive from Orlando out to KSC...

As I am not your attorney, I will not advise you to do or not do anything....

Cheers,
Buffy
