Darrell,
Wow, we had 11/10 on everything.
Well, now for the truth. On the bright side (no pun), many good-natured
optimistic people were there, at least 11 people in about 8 cars. The sky
was clear before moonset and the temperature was great with low humidity.
Some people looked at doubles, clusters, and Jupiter etc, and others just
had a big party. I think a lot of deep sky observing got done, but after
midnight scattered mid-level clouds were getting pretty bad. Then there
were flashes like those from a camera. They turned out to be distant
lightning in the SE. But, all in all, it seemed like everyone had a great
time. Too bad you couldn't make it.

Folks, nagging obligations prevented me from joining folks up at Cherry
on Saturday night. Thought I'd inquire and enjoy by proxy.
So . . . after getting skunked all summer, how did it turn out?
If it was "great", "stellar", ink black, and you had 10/10 seeing, I'm
not sure I want to know. The story of my life.
