I must say in my years of experience stargazing I have come to despise 90-degree finders. I simply can't sight anything in the sky when looking 90-degrees away from a skyward direction. Dale's

Good job on the pics, Ted! We needed a pic of you, though. Oh well, we'll get one next time. I had a good time hanging out with all you guys, really! Even though it was cloudy we all kept busy
