Hi Al,
I just got back from a weekend in the mountains. Lovely weather and
great getting up on top of the mountain. While not as grand as your
trip it was certainly a nice weekend.
I'm planning on making the SAC meeting Friday and will bring some
copies of the book "Epsilon Aurigae A Mysterious Star System." I will
sell them at a reduced price, normally $29.95 + S&H, at the club
Friday just $25 each and signed is so desired.
Anyone interested in following this most interesting star system will
find tons of good information in the book. The book is 287 pages SC.
With each day this fall the system rises higher earlier. By the end
of October it will be high in the NE sky around midnight. It is in an
excellent position for northern observers and at 3rd magnitude can be
followed even with the bright night city sky.
Jeff
