Ken, et al;

I will trade it all for a great weekend at 5 Mile Meadow.  Here's hoping =
we
have used up our bad luck for the year.

Well as the subject says things happen threes, Jimmy  Ray, Steve Coe, =
and I
guess I make three
The group I was in was not that far from Jimmy when his scope went over =
and
about 1/2 hours latter one of our Orion 8" Intelescope took a tumble, =
lucky
there was not ton much damage, loss of collimation and a slight dent on =
the
end of the tube. About 4:30 as we were sitting under the canopy that was
(yes was) attached to my tent trailer was ripped of by a gust of wind =
and as
I jumped up to grab the edge of it the metal end that holds the poles =
sliced
the palm of my left hand. It was not deep, just inconvenient when trying =
to
bandage it. We were lucky no one was hurt.

That put aside, seems that all had a good time.
