The weather was clear and the sun was setting.
The starry sky party was not a specific day. It had a wide range of time requirements, fixed in a certain month, and then through rigorous weather analysis, the two days of the month with the best weather would be held, completely on short notice.
For example, if you wanted to observe the Messier object in autumn, you had to find a good day in September; if you wanted to observe the moon, you had to find a clear day with a full moon. In short, the party was very weather-dependent, and the time was very variable.
But astronomy enthusiasts were very fanatical, and they would always pay attention to relevant information, so even if it was last minute, they would not miss it.
Moreover, the circle was relatively small, and they were closely connected. If one person knew the time of the party, the others would also know.
There were many dining cars at the party, and Texas cuisine had gathered.
The Texas cuisine was mainly meat, which suited Godzilla very well. All day, there was a strong aroma from each dining car, which made Godzilla hungry.
In the evening, they trooped off in search of food.
Godzilla's stomach rumbled. Li Du saw a roast lamb and went over and said, "Give me one, buddy."
The owner smiled and asked, "Okay, how much?"
"One."
The owner's smile froze. "Uh, no kidding, you want a roast lamb? I'm roasting an antelope with coarse wheat flour. As you can see, it's bigger, not a lamb. "
Li Du pointed behind him and said, "Did you see the figure of my man? If you have roast lamb here, then I need more than one. "
Sure that it was a big deal, the owner was excited. He heated up the electric grill, took out a prepared antelope, rubbed a lot of coarse wheat flour on it, and stuffed it in.
The antelope was already half-cooked, so in another half an hour, the aroma of the meat and the wheat flour would blend, and the dish would be ready.
Li Du let him roast it while he took the others to find other food.
There was a local kind of fried fruit cake, which was baked and then fried in boiling oil. It was sweet and fragrant, very suitable for dessert.
Sophie bought a mixed salad, which she paired with a few slices of fried chicken in green pepper sauce, indicating that this was her dinner.
The little ones were omnivores, so it was okay for them to eat vegetables. Sophie's assorted salad was snatched clean by them.
Sophie was so angry that she rolled her eyes. She had no choice but to buy a few more portions. She thought that the children would also want to eat, so she bought more.
In the end, after she bought it, the roasted antelope meat was also out of the oven. The boss put together two tables for them to eat. The few furry children smelled the meat and jumped up and down.
Sophie is giving them a mixed salad, but they won't even look at it!
This made Sophie so angry that she picked them up and spanked them one by one. All of them had thick skin and flesh. If you want to hit them, then hit them. I don't care. I just want to eat meat.
Grilled antelope was the main course, paired with barbecue platters, salmon fritters, baked pumpkin with walnuts, sweet hot chili, applewood bacon, spicy elk meat, honey prawns, and so on. They arranged a table full of dishes.
The honey prawns were coated with a layer of honey. When Ah Meng smelled it, it was so excited that it tried to climb up the chair. It held its head high and stared at the honey prawns with its small eyes wide open.
Sophie pushed the plate to the middle of the table. Ah Meng could not see it now. It was stunned, and then as if it had suddenly lost its strength, it fell off the back of the chair.
It got up and grabbed Sophie's trouser leg. It shook its paw and squeaked. It was so anxious that it almost cried.
Sophie had to give it a honey prawn. Ah Meng gobbled it up, and finally lay there and licked its paw until it was wet.
Brother Wolf went to bring back some alcohol. There was fresh beer brewed by the farm in town, as well as cocktails that had been mixed.
Li Du saw a lot of wine stalls. People came and went with glasses of wine in their hands, taking big gulps of it.
The sun was about to disappear, and people had to hurry to eat. When the sun completely set, they would be ready to watch the stars. After all, that was the theme of the party.
Li Du and his group gobbled up the meat and wine. Godzilla could not help but mutter, "Ha, this is a good day."
After following Li Du, he did not lack meat at every meal. Moreover, he ate high-quality lamb and beef. His body fat continued to decrease, and although his size did not change much, his muscles were more defined.
Night fell, and the stars appeared.
Godzilla stuffed the last piece of lamb into his mouth. They clapped their hands and were ready to go watch the stars.
After eating and drinking to their fill, people took out their equipment in high spirits. Li Du's eyes were opened.
Most of them were binoculars of various calibers, but people were full of DIY enthusiasm. Perhaps some of the binoculars were bought, but the owners would modify them.
For example, someone added a bracket to the binoculars. This bracket could be placed on a person's body, like a simple exoskeleton armor.
In this way, with the bracket, the owner's hands were free. He held a pen in one hand and a beer in the other, sitting on the ground, looking relaxed.
There were many experts at the party. During the day, they would give lectures on astronomy, teach people how to make binoculars, and observe the stars at night.
Most of these people were more enthusiastic. Li Du found an astronomy enthusiast named Stockton and asked him how to use the two binoculars to locate the stars.
When Stockton saw the binoculars, he whistled and said, "Cool, who made these? They are great. If you know them, they can teach you to recognize all the constellations in the night sky. "
Li Du said regretfully, "But I don't know them."
Stockton laughed and said, "Actually, you have an automatic star-finding telescope. You don't need anyone's help at all. You only need a laptop and install astronomy software on it. Then, after you power the telescope, it will automatically find the constellation you want."
He was referring to the telescope that had a lot of wires on it. Li Du did not know what it was for, but after Stockton explained, he realized that it was a fully automatic telescope.
Stockton was very enthusiastic. He helped him borrow a laptop and started tinkering with it.
After a while, he finally downloaded a huge map of the galaxy on the software. Stockton taught him how to locate the constellations, and then he was able to use it.
Li Du chose the Taurus constellation and clicked on it. A dialog box popped up. He followed Stockton's instructions and the telescope started to rotate slowly.
Sophie could not help but applaud. She smiled and said, "Wow, God, this is great."
Li Du hugged Stockton. The latter patted him on the shoulder and said, "Go and enjoy your extreme galactic travel!"
