The Regular Cambroon night will hopefully start again on the 12th March:)
As all of South East Queensland was clouded out for the one in February lets hope we have better luck this time:thumbsup:
I hope to see as many as we can make it up to Cambroon:astron::stargaze:

Due to the amount of soaking rain we have had at Cambroon this month nearly 300 mm the ground has not had chance to dry out:rain::rain::(
Even if we have sunshine all day today and tomorrow the ground would not be firm enough so it is with regret that I will call off the Astro weekend for the 13th:(, but wait there is good news:D
The Moon the following Saturday 20/10/03 is only 18% lit and sets at Cambroon at around 19:30hr
I am extending the invitation for your attendance that weekend if you can make it, or weather permitting:thumbsup:
I look forward to catching up with you all then:astron::stargaze:

Looks like Cyclone Ului might rain on your parade AGAIN Ron... The forecast yesterday read fine for the end of the week. Now it says a few showers every day for the next week.

G'day Ron. With the past 3 or 4 months of 'weather', there will be no excuses for equipment that has not been maintained to within an inch of its life. That's the problem with wet weather - it brings out the temptation to 'fix' stuff. Be interesting to see what everyone has 'fixed'.

I can't make it alas Ron - wife has me minding the kids this weekend while she has fun. Hope weather behaves for the Cambroonites.

If I come I will be late Ron. I've got an open night at the Mapleton Observatory. All volunteers gratefully accepted. :)

The Cambroon Night for Saturday is still on:)
The last three nights have been good to brilliant till midnight.
I have just been outside and except for some small cloud south west is lovely:thumbsup:
The ground is now firm again after a couple days of warm and breezy drying weather:):)

Watched a beautiful sunset this afternoon, with crystal clear skies. I really should have gotten the scope out for a play, but got take-away with the wife and have knocked off a bottle of wine together. We were up with a vomiting child at midnight for about an hour last night...

Hope tomorrow is good for you all.

Cheers

Hi Ron,

I think I will take a raincheck (good choice of word)for tonight.

It's a long way to go to look at clouds...

:(
