the warm part i had covered!
as for sitting.. didn't do any of that... Joe (i think it was joe) kept me busy moving from scope and to different objects! got a chance to do some piccies.. but will have to put them up this afternoon when i get home from work. i forgot my cable release.. so i will do some star trails tonight. I also want to push my camera to do a 5-10 minute exposure.. being digital and all. the sky was nice and dark.. compared to wollongong. could easily make out the Large Magellic Cloud!.. actually did a 30 sec exposure on that part of the sky and you can see its little smudge in the photo
the one thing i am noticing though is how dehydrating it is to be outside. I have even noticed it at home, that I do end up going through a lot of water when i venture back in from being outside.
