Howdy all; My observing buddy for over 20 years, AJ Crayon, is having computer problems and will not be online for the next week or so. The thunderstorms we had pass through Phoenix, Az several nights ago created a lightening strike near AJ's house and it damaged AJ's computer. So, he is considering how to get it fixed. AJ asks that any questions about the Arizona Messier Marathon be directed to Jack Jones or myself. Here's hoping he will be restored and back up and running by this weekend.
