Rain in Albury.

[toetoe (Peter)]

I set our little tent up before sunset last night just to make sure there was nothing wrong with it before the Snake Valley trip. I woke up a couple of times during the night due to the sound of rain on the roof, what a great sound that makes. Oh well, one tent to dry out before the week end but the ground got a real good soaking. except for one 2.4 X 2.4 square

Should we let the farmers in on the ""New Scope Rule" gotta be better than cloud seeding.

Yep, I had the scope out last night for one last "dry run" before the trip ... had to go and pack up at 4am when the rain came...

AND Peter if it rains when on camp I bet you can pack up your scope faster than anyones else..thats when a smaller scope is a delight.

Geez - I'll charge them 50% of whatever a cloud seeder charges (is that an occupation?) just to drive into a country town and set up my scope, ironclad guarantee it will rain before the first DSO light can hit my retina! Guaranteed!
