Hi Jim and everyone else!
Returned safely to Tucson - sorry to only attend the first half of the event,
but we've both gotta work tomorrow and I've got a CT scheduled too - will be a
big dose of reality after 4 days of the Canyon! Just finished the first of
likely a couple posts on this year's event at:

Grand Canyon Star Party - DAY THREE - The Wind Decides To Move In
Location: Grand Canyon Visitor Center, South Rim of Grand Canyon, AZ, about
340 miles north of home in Tucson, about 7000 ft elevation
Weather: Mid 80s at Noon, 70s at sunset, DOGGONE cold and windy until 11 PM
when we broke up. Clear sky, gusty winds.
Seeing and Transparency: The wind gusts are stealing the seeing.
Transparency not as good as the last two nights, although my cue, Canes
Venatici,
had both main stars easily visible.
