Yeah, it was a great night. The best viewing that I have seen from there, that is for sure.

We were all worried when some cloud threatened, but it wimped off to the east, to try it's luck in Sydney.

I gave up at 11pm, and I still got in 5 hours' worth of vision.

My dew controller battery only used up 25% (that was the yellow jump starter from Supercheap) with the 2 straps running on it. The main battery for the telescope didn't even drop 10% over that time.

Thanks to Allan and Mrs L for the charlotte. It tasted excellent, and was sliced just right ...
