Update: Semi-soggy spring equinox sunset watch with Alice

6:26 PM: If you were wondering – yes, the spring equinox sunset watch is on, says Alice – Solstice Park, starting around 6:45 pm.

8:32 PM: No sunset, but, as promised, Alice was there for a handful of skywatchers.

Those two were the youngest attendees – Alice’s daughter Vera (left), and Cameron.

If you’re new here, by the way, Alice (Enevoldsen) is a NASA Solar System Ambassador and, among other things promoting astronomy and sky-watching (such as writing Skies Over West Seattle for us, and publishing info at Alice’s Astro Info), has been hosting educational sunset viewings on equinox and solstice dates for going on six years! (Last year, the sun DID make a welcome-to-spring appearance.)

Out for a walk March 20, 2015 (9:14 pm)

I have attended your sessions in the past but did not make this one. Many folks in West Seattle, and me included, feel so fortunate and appreciative of the amazing talented folks that reside here. Thank you, Alyson, for providing these sunset celebrations for our community. You are truly special. We love your work.
