The weather was less than ideal last night for the Thunderbird Park  
Star Party. Despite the clouds, people got some good views of the  
Moon, Saturn and other objects as they peaked between the clouds.  
There were a couple dozen telescopes set up and I would estimate close  
to 100 visitors. I got to talk to many students and think I may have  
inspired some. Even without great observing, I consider the star party  
a success and want to thank all those involved, especially Jack Jones.
