Last night was a beautiful night up in Dewey. Stan and I did some observing with his 16" and Lhires III. When I stepped out of the observatory I thought I saw clouds, but then when I looked closer it was the Milkyway. The temperature was perfect with a light wind and the sky brilliant. I had not seen the night sky away from Phoenix for a long time. What a fantastic night for observing.
