Bruneau Sand Dunes and Observatory

 
 
 
 
 
 
 


I love this place.  Cole got to look at the sun in the first telescope.  The big binoculars let him spy on people hiking up the dunes.  We saw star clusters, nebulas, Saturn, etc. through the big scopes.  We also saw a solar flare.  The sky was so beautiful, you could see the milky way and more.  We went on a scorpian hunt (they turn florescent when viewed with a black light).  Cole wants to be a scorpion for Halloween.  At our campsite the moon looked like an orange slice.  Amazing.  I wont go into the misadventure parts...
