Please feel free to contact me to ask about my events. Beginners welcome to all of them.
At the start of each event I will wait for up to about 20 minutes after the starting time, and then we or I will go off by ourselves. If you come later than that, you are welcome to find us or just go ahead and start making observations by yourself. Or call me if you have my cell phone number.
