Hi all!

Well I whimped out myself last night, it was still quite windy at 9:00 when I finished dinner and the transparency seemed to be bad so I decided to rest instead. Tonight its seems like it will be clear after all with better transparency (less high level water vapor), so how about having a session at my place this pm? Let me know if you can make it, I finally got my new 25mm Zeiss eps , and with any luck my binoviewer should come in today (fingers crossed!). I'll be at Richards Dad's funeral today (2:00) so I may see some of you there.

Rob: you certainly are welcome to try fitting my scope in your car sometime (is this a clever ruse to get a new scope? ;>)
and as far as the Madawaska highlands goes the spot I had in mind is about 15km west of Dacre--- which is itself about 25km N of Calabogie.


bye for now

I was holding back until I felt more sure about the weather for FLO,
as that meant bringing my scope as well. However, if the weather does
look like it will hold, I might come over to Equuleus "sans scope".

I'll be at Richards Dad's funeral today (2:00) so I may see some of
you there.

I'll see you there Mike.

Later,
Rol

(If this email catches people who will be going before they go) Please
pass on my condolences - and I'm sure those of any other OAFs that can't
make it.

Who hoo. I'll be there. (FLO is nice, but Equuleus has better toys
and a better sky).

I'll bring my binoviewer just in case your's doesnt appear.

I suggest we look for the dimple (ngc4042) in Roland's Face
(M84 galaxy cluster).

It pains me to say this but I will not be able to make it to your awe
inspring observatory. Sigh, have made araingments with a friend to be
at FLO tonight. Maybe next time.

I'm thinking I may have to miss out tonight at Equuleus. Considering
how hard it was to get out of bed this morning I might fall asleep on
the way there (never mind coming back). If anyone is going
approximately past my place on the way out (Roland perhaps?) and would
like to take the Naglers out give me a call (it may be necessary to pry
my fingers off the case).
