That's great you lucky guys. Be sure to catch comet 177P/Barnard 2 passing the 
Cat's Eye Nebula (NGC 6543 in Draco). Should be north of it about a degree. 
Look for NGC 6552 at 9' E of the Cat's Eye at PA 97. That should look cool in 
its own right if you can get to mag 14.

Here's a track from Skyhound:

  AJ, et al;



  Joe Goss and I are planning on a three nighter, if the weather will allow.  
He and I are going to be there 5 PM on Thursday afternoon.  Joe has a tarp 
frame to block the sun I am certain that will be handy.



  See you there;

  Steve Coe

  My musings on long range forecasts are similar to others - for Hovatter.  So, 
despite my discussion about 5MM, I'm ready for Hovatter Rd.  The weather will 
be amenable for telescope usage.  I'll be planning on leaving early Friday 
afternoon.  Any takers?

  Clear skies to us,
  aj

  Howdy folks;



  I have been looking forward to this weekend as much as anyone you know, but 
take a look at the wide field Western US satellite image.  There is a tropical 
low pressure area moving our way.  I think we will wake up to clouds tomorrow 
(Thur) and we will have to see how quickly they move off.  Hopefully, by 
Saturday the clouds will move away and we can discuss a trip to view the sky.  
I am officially depressed by the depression.  Maybe a big, juicy high pressure 
ridge will move in and push it to the east.



  All we can do is talk about the weather;

  Steve Coe
