Pierre…

For future reference, if you need lat/long of an observing site, go to www.topozone.com

--Search for your site (or a nearby location) by name
--Navigate (changing map and view scale as needed) to it's exact location by clicking the mouse on it (that moves the cross-hair)
--Set the coordinate display options to D/M/S, and you've got it.

I get 34° 48' 49"N, 119° 07' 34"W for the parking lot at the end of the road.
