Welcome

Welcome to Woodlawn Lake Observatory! The observatory design is a collaboration between myself and Scott Horstman @ Backyard Observatories.  The build took place over about 4 days during a blazing hot San Antonio summer and finished on time, on budget and exactly as planned.  If you've ever dreamed of owning an observatory BYO is the way to go.

Here you'll find pictures I've taken of the observatory build and equipment. I'll be adding astro photos and other items as the site grows. Visit regularly to see what's new.
