Thanks again for every one. It was a GREAT gathering. Weather really sucked, nothing bad to really complain about.

Thanks Bruce!

At the gathering, we were discussing the location of certain stars and planets and some people were wondering about the bright object at night in the SE sky. It is Jupiter. The even brighter object in the East at around 5:30 a.m. is Venus. The twinkly star next to the moon these days is Antares.

For other star gazers out there, I get my information about the night sky from the free online software, Stellarium.

http://www.stellarium.org

You can set your location, time and date and it will show you what objects will be appearing when. Very cool! 8)

I had a great time.( I did miss the snow) :(

I was the last one to depart the Glyph's on Sunday afternoon
After leaving I went over to the hot pot & took a hour or so dip, Then I trecked up to the cave campground & hiked to the cave it was pretyy neat it was full of petroglyph's & alot of them still had some color :thumbsup:

Then I hit the road again & I ended up spending the night in Beaty NV.
& the next morning I headed home ward to pick up Jan so we could head back to Salt Lake to see my daughter, I would of went derectly to Salt Lake from the Glyph's But I knew that Jan wanted to go & see my daughter (Brielle).

So on my trip back to Vegas I took alittle side trip to some sand dunes scince I had a little time to waste before Jan got off of work it was a nice little detour.

Once I goty home I did a little laundry & I had to fix some electrical wires to my electric brakes that had gotten torn apart on on of my side journey's :(

Once wires we're fixed I picked up Jan & we hit the road again.

My daughter is doing alot better she has been diagnosed with Lupus & I am trying to run around & get alot of stuff done to help her out with her medical & work stuff, My next is to go to the social security office to try to get the ball rolling & try to getting her on disability scince her days of working at a hospital are pretty much over.


I will be back in Vegas in a few days & once I get home I will get some pictures downloaded

I'm glad everyone made it home safely home.

Talk at ya all soon.

Ken F.
(P.S. Johnny in flames will be up soon) RRRR-RRRR.
Thanks to the Highways & Byways & our National & State Parks,What a beautiful Country we live in.

Think I'm the last to make it home, but I did take a little detour to the Tetons. The wedding (Andrew and Christina Bonnett, Andrew being my youngest) was really a great time.

The only thing I can day about you all at the Glyphs is you sure did make it hard to leave early! :thumbsup:
