Was there ever clouds out there Saturday? At Vekol we had clouds starting
at 10:00 that covered the whole sky. At 12:00 they disappeared very quickly
and the night was clear for the duration. All in all a good night not
counting 10:00 to 12:00.

A lot of folks missed out on great skies Saturday night at the Antennas.
Lynn Blackburn and
Dora-Lynn were there with their dog Pumpkin, and Joe Goss and his wife, and
Dave Fredrickson, and a couple others. The wind died down early and the sky
was exceptional. Once again I was fooled by the rising milky way, thinking
that clouds were moving in. There was a big "loopy" part of the milky way
reaching into Scorpius that I never noticed before, not in my 101 years of
observing. I also took three 40 minute exposures with the 12 inch
astrograph.
