Cool astronomy park in U.S.

[tripleped]

Not really an “observing report” per se but nevertheless thought it might be of interest to see this. I recently commented in another SGL thread about a dedicated astronomy park about 40 min from my home in the central U.S. I checked it out during the day yesterday and took some pics to share. I only recently found out about it as I am trying to find some darker skies. I was really impressed! 9 circular observing platforms each with electrical outlets, a white dome obsy and a roll off roof obsy( the dark brown shed in background. Nice clean restrooms and good views pretty low towards horizon. I definitely plan on making observing trips there! The local astronomical society brings out their 32” DOB (yes 32” that’s no typo) on friday nights for all to use. Would love to look through that beast. So if anyone’s ever near the St Louis, Missouri area check it out!
