Adventure: 221, Item 03 – Look to the Heavens

Team: YOLT
Date:  September 3, 2013
Location: Fresno

Description:
You have hit on one of Gary's loves—looking skyward. From the day when he picked a book of Greek mythology, he has been enamored with the night sky—seeing the myths come alive in the stars. Of course, tonight we get to see Hercules and Lyra around 9pm. Of course, it would have helped to either have the time to move away from the city lights or have the neighbors turn off their lights.



As I was writing this, I became aware that an old neighbor of mine, Dr. William Burucki was on Science Friday. What does he do? He is a star watcher. But a special star watcher in that he is looking for planets circling other stars-exoplanets. He is the chief investigator for the Kepler telescope. Now that is a telescope to look at stars with.

Description:
Today Sherri and Gary went for a Stroll-well it really was a hike, but after doing the JMT, almost anything else except for the PCT and AT are strolls. You might ask, where did we stroll to? Glad you did, on Sauntering Stroll up Lewis Creek Trail, we were finding a warm water Spring with our Son, Steven. Success!

#TwitterTuesday Do an OUTDOOR activity that starts with the letter "W". Examples: wakeboard, whiffle ball, water fight... Get creative!



While those “w” things sound ok, Sherri and Gary thought we would do a fun thing our on Way. So our Twitter Tuesday event, the first of this season—we are not on Twitter, consisted of a Walk With a Woman, Who is my Wife With Wine at WoodWard Park.
