See you there Ron- I'll be there with Russ & Christina.

Plus my heated throw blanket- if it's under 5 deg, Chrissy and I will be inside watching your tv not your eyepiece.

She's bringing her guitar to play some tunes on your deck if that will be okay.

I'm not bringing my telescope, but I will bring my glass as you wanted to look through them.

We want to do some night sky photography, so just the Canon DSLR & tripod will accompany us and I'll look through your scope- you just find things & I will look. I'll bring a list of things I want to see.

Cambroon Night

Hi Ron

Leigh and I will probably drop by (as long as the weather holds). I have fixed the LXD75 and have a mintron video camera to try out, although I expect we will be there mainly for observing. Chris is in the middle of his mid semester exams so is unable to come.
Looking forward to some dark skies. Bye the way how cold is it getting nowadays?

Mike

Apart from having the boys with me from Saturday, I have a big day organised for Sunday. So it will be yet another quiet one at home for me.
I hope you all have a wonderful time.
There were a few new people interested though. How about posting in General Chat that you're open for business.

Cambroon nights

Hi JJJ,

You are right, its been ages. Shame you couldn't make it, I was going to pick your brains about the mintron (aka GStarEx). Still we can catch up at Astrofest as Chris and I wil be there for the first weekend. Hopefuly he will be clear of exams around that time and can concentrte on getting some good images.
Hope you are well.

All the best,

Mike

What! No Nettie
but... but...
or just but

Never mind, I understand Nettie, I'd rather you take things easy than to push yourself; I don't want you not feeling well. But I so would have loved to have seen you again nevertheless.

Seeing me survive in the blizzards alone could have been worth your while, we all know what a woos I am.

Nettie, apologies for taking so long to get back to you.
We plan to leave around 3pm, so I'm thinking we should be there by around 6-ish.
