Thanks to Mike Meeks, he knew a couple electrical technitions that gave us a tour and it just so happened the telescope was down for maintenance and at the angle we could walk out onto it. We were lucky as now the public and tours are no longer allowed inside the fence due to enhanced security.

Damn, what a Rally!

Well, they's a damn good chance I warped every panel I stepped on. Then when Mike thought we had to go through a security check so we had to stash our hardware. All I had was a little bitty two shot .25 ladies derringer that a hooker gave me one time, and DK and Cliff pull two 1911's from their vest, about 15 magazines, .380's out of their boots, butter fly, and punch knives and brass knuckles out of their pockets. I always thought Dk was glad to see me but that mystery was solved when he pulled a set of nunchakus from the front of his pants.

It really wasn't that big of a deal Coach. You tour one stinking Radio Telescope Facility and climb the largest dish there while it's down for maintenance and talk to a couple techs, you've done 'em all.

The complimentary surf and turf dinner included with the admission, the real time viewing of deep space images of super novas and binary stars, unlimited time in the Space Shuttle simulator and Black Hawk Helicopter rides were ok too, if thats the kind of thing you like.

They gave us beer too.
The WVU Cheerleaders were there touring at the same time.

Wouldn't no big deal.

...I got in on the first ever -shoot down of a jet fighter- with the new (at the time) Night capable Stinger !

But that was ...another story...

If you hate that you're going to strangle yourself because every morning the motel had a complimentary breakfast including any style omelets with choices of tender steak, sweet onions, black forest ham, goat cheese, sharp cheddar cheese, portobello mushrooms, vine ripened tomatoes. I couldn't make up my mind, so what the hell it was complimentary, I told them to give me "The Works" every morning. It went good with a Bloody Mary and home fries.
