I woke up this morning and thought I had experienced a teletransportation.
I looked out the window and thought, "My God! Have I been transported back
to Missouri? These skies!" Then I saw the cactus behind the house and
realized I was still in Arizona. I think. I am not sure anymore.

Well, I C an feel your pain...kind of. L ast night I did something I don 't
normally do. I looked at the full moon in my rather new to me scope.
Warning, USE YOUR LUNAR FILTER. Ok. so I dug up the filter & all was good.
Thought this is great for a cloudy night. aimed at Orion nebula & clear, but
I wanted a more close up & personal view. Changed eyepieces. smaller
view.but ahhhh. 7 nag hits the spot. A nyway. went back to the moon. M oral
of the story. don't forget to put a filter on each eyepiece you use, ops or
you'll go blind, even on a cloudy day you can see forever or loose your
eyesight...esrom my Verizon Wireless LGVX10000 device.

Steve, I feel your pain. In the grand scheme of things, El Nino will go
hide again, and stay there longer than he's on the scene. I just hope he
goes on his time-out before the All Arizona Messier Marathon.

Ok, I have had enough;
While driving into Phoenix from Wickenburg on Friday afternoon it was nice
to see the desert so green. Lots of growing bushes and I got to thinking
about how pretty the flowers on the saguaros will be in a couple of
months. Being a long time member of the Saguaro Astonomy Club, it will be
great to see our namesake in blossum.
However, being the owner of a new (at least new to me) 9.25 inch Celestron
SCT, I would like a chance to USE my new scope, for at least a few nights.
I am certain that people in Flagstaff would like to get a chance to rest
from shoveling snow and maybe view some stars.
I am sitting in my RV writing this and the sound of the rain on the roof
is quite loud.
This whole "El Nino" thing has got to stop;
