Star Gazing on Pensacola Beach
I meant to post this a bit earlier in the week, but if you have any interest in astronomy, you’re in luck this weekend. The Escambia Amateur Astronomy Association (EAAA) is hosting a star gaze on Casino Beach (at the pavilion) on Friday, September 12th and Saturday September 13th.
As long as the weather holds out, they will have their telescopes set up to look at the Moon, Jupiter, and other star clusters and galaxies. Star charts will also be available for use. The event starts at 6:30PM and goes into the night.
If you miss the star gaze this weekend, they are also setting up just past the temporary gate to Fort Pickens on Friday, September 26th between 6:30 PM and 10:00 PM.

Hi Dave,
I found your blog on DJ’s site. I have a blog all about Pensacola and I was out photographing the beach yesterday. I didn’t see the residential flooding but saw evidence of it everywhere else. It was coming up along Pensacola Bay for sure. I’ll be interested to see if the astronomy club meets tonight.
