Black Star Canyon was clear and warm…
Don Lynn and Jim Hannum have repaired the pump at the well on our Anza property, and the tank should be full by the time people arrive for the star party. That means we should have our normal supply of running water tonight, as well as good conditions for viewing, so come on out for the star party!
