Astroron's 70th Birthday Star Party

Thanks Ron for a great night. I thought I would share parts of his Birthday with you all. It did feel a little strange not rolling out the telescopes but the 20 x 80 Bino's bagged the Galilean moons, Orion Neb and 47 Tuc before Moon Rise. Happy Birthday Ron

LOLOLOL That's brilliant Wes. Well done.
So sorry I couldn't make it to the party. This weather of late just leaves me floored.
Happy Birthday again Ronster.

I said "Ron". I can take the nose and glasses but I think the crown is taking it a little to far ha ha ha

Classic! You celebrated in good spirit there Ron, only sorry I missed all that action before I turned up *cough* gate crashed.
Thanks for sharing Wes. I should have taken a peek out of your bino's, I would have loved to have seen Andromeda thru them.
