Saturday, March 27 update

This is still "on," weather permitting. However, my original post was before the shift to daylight saving. Now, the sun doesn't even set until about 7:15pm. So I'd expect we'll try to set up sometime around 7:30-7:45pm, and stick around until about 9:30pm or so.

If I do set up early, we might get a BRIEF peak at Venus before it sets. Mars will be overhead, although it is rapidly shrinking. Saturn will rise shortly before sunset, but probably won't clear the buildings around Myrtle and Lime until at least 8:30pm or 9pm. A gibbous moon will be visible during the entire sidewalk event.
