The winter star party is an annual event held around new moon in February each year. Approximately 600 amateur astronomers leave the cold confines of the north and pack their astro gear for a one week escape to the warm Florida sunshine.

I have joined a small group of astronomers in staying just down the road from the wsp at bararnacles bed and breakfast. After 3 nights I can say that I am very happy with the astro-friendly atmosphere

I have been working very hard at the party speaking with vendors and beginning video segments of an upcoming video presentation I am producing.

Please check back tomorrow with more information from wsp 2010.
