[AZ-Observing] Lotsa fun at the Messier Marathon

Well;
 

Even though we missed AJ, we managed to have fun without him.  

 

I counted 107 vehicles in twilight on Saturday evening, we had 25 on Friday!

 

So, plenty of folks showed up to take in the activities, I understand
someone managed 108 objects between the cloud banks, I know Rick Tejera did
107.  I know that Jack Jones will have the official count at the club
meeting.

 

I took some astroimages with the help of Al Steiwig, thanks again Al.  I
will see how those turned out in daylight.  We hooked up Al's Canon camera
to my old Pentax thread lenses and got some decent results.

 

I had a chance to walk around and chat with lots of folks, as usual a fun
bunch of people. 

 

Including Don Machholz, one of the first Messier Marathoners.  

 

So, I am going down for a nap, I enjoyed as always.

 

Clear skies to us all;

Steve Coe
