I was heading toward Vekol today anyway (kind of) so I figured I may as
well test my new theory of 60% chance of rain=40% sucker holes (since I
get 20mpg). And while that wasn't quite the case, I was able to nab
pristine views of the Ring Nebula and the M13. I wonder if it is some
phenomena that makes objects between the cloudulas so sharp or if it's
only another case of averted optimism?
