[sac-forum] Re: fun night at Saddle Mt. site

In addition to the binocular viewing, we also spent some time walking around talking to everyone and observing through other peoples telescopes. Some observations I remember are Sirius courtesy Joe Bergeron, NGC3344 and another galaxy in Bob Christ's telescope and a nice view of M35 and NGC2158 in someone's telescope, whose name I don't recall.

Yes it was good to get out with good friends and enjoy the delights of a night sky.

Howdy all;

Just a quick note to say that we had a fun time at the Saddle Mt. site.
There were 11 vehicles.  David Fredericksen, Matt Luttinen, AJ and I sat
around with binoculars and viewed objects in Canis Major and Orion.  Comet
Holmes is just barely naked eye as it makes its way toward the California
Nebula for next weekend.

Thanks to all that showed up for a good night observing;

Steve Coe
