A month from now I'll be boarding a Qantas 747 in Los Angeles and heading for Sydney. My wife and I are very excited. This will be my second trip, her first. We'll be traveling with Dave Kriege of Obsession Telescopes and a number of other Yanks for a week of observing up in Coonabarabran using mostly Obsession scopes from 18" to 25" along with Andy Murrell's 20" Hector. We'll come back to Sydney for a week of sightseeing and other touristy stuff. Can't wait to knock back a Toohey's Old Black Ale. I really like a good dark beer.
