I would truly like to participate in tomorrow evening's meeting, but with clear skies forecasted and so few of such nights lately, I'm afraid I'll have to be outside with my scope.? But if this fact should cause any possible rescheduling of our meeting, I will attend.? (thought it was worth a shot? :-)

I've posted the details for our membership to the SAS Groups.io.??
Mark/Deb/Lee and Myself are members of both clubs so it felt like an easy thing to do.
See you all tonight!
