We had a comfortable 33c yesterday... some fires to the west up set the viewing
last night... but New Year Eve! wow! best skies I've had for months, was even seeing
hints of the Ecke gap in the A ring on Saturn in my trusty lil 8" f/6 newt!. I'm sure if I
lived in suburbia I would of swapped for a 12" dob by now....
aaaaarrrrrhh there's nothing like dark rural skies!! bring on the 16" GSOoooooooooooo!!!!!
