Looking awesome out here tonight. The earlier cloud has cleared off and
the jetstream is across the border in Queensland shouldn't efect us much.
It will give me a good chance to try out the new additions (right after
Underbelly). The other night was crappy seeing and mushy cloud all about.
But did get in a couple of standouts Leo triplet and Eta Carina neb with
OIII in the 31mm. And Saturn under better seeing to the north in the 7mm
was awesome with nice detail in the planetary banding, similar to Jupiter
except different colours.

Looking forward to the weekend. I've managed to talk the ex into allowing
me new moon weekends without the kids... Waahooo!!! looking forward
to alot more observing this year.

Cheers
