IIR Dances With Wolves got an Oscar nomination for costume design of indigenous inhabitants of the Great Plains, and now you have out done them on the Buffalo Gal look. Cute.
Never mind. 100% sure. A man just walked up to him and addressed him as Dr. Paul and he offered him a chair. If I didn't have my grimy baby on my lap I'd say hello myself.
We get it; we just don't care to reference one the truly worst films of the twentieth century. Some say, 'Plan Nine from Outer Space'. I say 'Zabriskie Point'(or maybe 'AI").
"@Althouse, that's really you under all those layers? I'd have thought you'd be wearing a light spring jacket, being from Wisconsin and all."
It's been my observation that the difference between people from warm vs cold climes is not that the coldsters can tolerate cold better, but that they have enough sense to wear clothes.

I am an old hand at observing tropical people in cold climates. No, clothes don't suffice.

Coldest I've ever observed with a telescope is -5 F. (Don't lick the scope's truss-tubes!)
Professor, am I right in thinking you have made many comments about disliking travel? Did Meade convince you?
I'm sure the small gas stove with Meade tending over mouth-watering hot chocolate is just outside the field of view!
No?
"I'm sure the small gas stove with Meade tending over mouth-watering hot chocolate is just outside the field of view!"
Hot liquids (with a little kicker added) is a must for enjoyable cold-weather observing.
There was no fire and no hot liquid. No morning coffee even until 60 miles after we left that place.
@Annie C
Meade is more travel a erse than I am!
No coffee for 60 miles? oh... the humanity! Was it worth it to see the Milky Way?
"There was no fire and no hot liquid. No morning coffee even until 60 miles after we left that place."
Next trip I suggest a small camping stove and a thermos. Make the coffee/chocolate the night before in your room/camp.
Shades of full burqa jacket
can't say why exactly - but love that pic! maybe a weird cross of sci-fi and humor?
"Was it worth it to see the Milky Way?"
Oh...the humanity!
Seen one galaxy, you've seen them all.

NGC 253, 1365, 1532, LMC, M31, ...
You know not of which you speak.
No one get the film reference yet???
LOL - I would love looking up at the stars without light pollution. Rare to do so.

Unfortunately, nowadays it takes an effort.
You will emerge from that cocoon a butterfly!

Looks like fun!
I could never get my wife into such straits though.
You are a good sport.
The burqua becomes you.
Guess what? I'm sitting in the United Club in the Houston airport and I'm 90% certain that Ron Paul is sitting at the next table.

Give him a kiss for me. :-) I voted for him for President twice.
Pants - cool!
Tell him I missed him on the Mandy Connell show the other day. Drat! She's he's #1 fan in CO.
It can get mighty cold in the desert at night. But as they say in the Upper Midwest, it's a dry cold.

Pants, we passed Koch Brother, David in the Furnace Creek lobby when we checked in last Friday. 100%.
That may be my new favorite photo of you, Ann. :-)
Great photo!
From the Vault 7 CIA leaks, this fun little tidbit:
Another profound revelation is that the CIA can engage in "false flag" cyberattacks which portray Russia as the assailant.
@Althouse, that's really you under all those layers? I'd have thought you'd be wearing a light spring jacket, being from Wisconsin and all.

I don't allow myself to bitch about the cold, seeing as how I ain't never even been to Bastogne and all.
I would recommend a detour through Utah. Maybe Zions National Park or Capital Reef. You are in my lovely neck of the woods l. good on ya!
@rejahm Thanks for the llnk. Makes those Silicon Valley guys who support big government look pretty stupid or naive or both.
