Jimmy, weather permitting I'm planning on a two nighter at the new site
southof I-10 on Hovatter Rd so I'll be leaving early Friday afternoon. We
are expecting about 5 people - so far. Depends on weather more than
anythingelse.
Clear skies to all,
aj

Was a great night last night in North Glendale. The sky was fairly steady
outmy way. Would be nice if we can get that this weekend. Saturday night I'm
planning out going out to Flat Iron for a little "marathon" practice. Anyone
else planning on going out? Jimmy Ray From: "Albert Stiewing"

interesting evening. There were clouds about, but the stars I was interested
in were between the clouds. I got good photometry on them. What was most
interesting was watching the clouds. There were two large bands of cloud
going south to north. They were local as the would form and dissipate, form
again and dissipate. It looked like they were trying to move north, but soon
after coming into existence they would dissipate as they started to move.
Very interesting to watch. One minute 1/3 of the Phoenix sky was cloud
covered. A few minutes later no clouds could be seen. Jeff -- Jeff Hopkins
