Description

I came to do some blacklighting after visiting this area a couple weeks ago and thinking it looked good. I had one sheet set up in the woods near the large pond and another on the other side of the runway along the large open path to the beach. Very light winds, warm temps (80's) and cloudy to clear conditions with around half moon. While walking between my sheets I met three locals that were nice to stop and chat with for a while.

Sheet 1 down the long path:
