Info.
I was visiting Deerfield Beach with my girlfriend and her parents. We were out on the back porch with two binoculars which we all shared. I wasn't able to bring a star chart and the light pollution was blocking most of the interesting details. This observation time was not very formal nor was meant to cover everything. It was more of the parents relaxing as I showed them the heavens.
