I'll be a no show for Friday night but am making plans for Saturday
night. Hoping to arrive a little on the early side to do some serious
collimation on my telescope. Seems the secondary rotated some on my
last collimation attempt and was only quickly checked. I want some
quality time putting it back in collimation and don't want to hurry the
job. I do much better work when I can take my time and do it carefully.
Clear skies to us all!
