Did you see it, Geoff?

I looked for it last night. I think I found it with the 27mm Pano because it was in about the right spot and there are no stars brighter than mag 8.5 there. But then clouds defeated me. I even got to use for the first time the RA-Dec grid overlay that came with my SkyAtlas 2000.0!! I was feeling so non-amateur using that thing.

I did definitely find Uranus though. First time I found it myself and seen it in a non-goto scope. Seeing was not very good but I got my best look so far at the pale blue planet.
