Sunday night was great at Vekol even though the turnout was low (4
vehicles, 5 people).
I observed some mostly minor galaxies in Virgo as well as some
showpieces in my 16" dob. I just built a tracking platform and it
made a big difference in observing at higher powers, even though the
platform isn't yet 100% functional.
I saw little or no evidence of the Vekol fire. It has essentially no
impact on the Vekol road observing site. I hope this means that the
fire is out and I also hope it didn't burn houses or damage other
things.
