[AZ-Observing] Re: Tonights observing

Yes, we had a typical crowd of over 90 people through the GRCO dome in 
Gilbert last night.  We got good, steady views of Saturn, Albireo, and 
Jupiter in the 16 inch.  While it was pretty warm and took a long time 
to get past twilight, we still had a good time talking with lots of 
interested folks and kids.  Bill, one of the Riparian volunteers, led a 
batch of folks on a flashlight walk on the trails, and they all arrived 
back at the dome about 9 pm, at the end of twilight, just in time for 
Jupiter to rise above the east wall of the dome.
