My name is Bob I live in the small town of Warwick, New York with my wife Nancy & our daughter Caroline. Warwick is about 60 miles north west of New York City in the foot hills of the Catskill mountains..
We first got into amateur astronomy back in 2004,when our daughter asked for a scope for Christmas. That was the start of a much delayed boyhood love of the night sky.. Over the last 4 years we have become members ofThe Board of The Rockland Astronomy Club, The Orange County Astronmical Association, The International Dark -Sky Association, North East Astro Imaging Conference Co-Chairman,
And N.E.A.F. Board of Directors
