Stars of May have arrived, with the window for gazing set to run  through the 16th. Clouds prevail at present, but a clearing may be in the works for tomorrow evening, Wednesday the 13th. If  skies clear as predicted, we’ll meet for a gaze starting at 9pm – late, yes, but daylight lingers long this time of year. Check for updates through the day tomorrow. If we’re on, plan to meet by the white barn on the Giacomini wetlands. Entrance is through the gate at 3rd and C streets in Point Reyes Station. Charts for the month are linked below. Stay tuned!
