I'm sorry for not responding ... I've kept your email as "new" hoping to rearrange things so that I could go. But I just can't do it. Hope you have fun, and I hope you'll tell us about it here.

At next weeks meeting I will be showing a video
that includes shots from my visits to the Texas Star Pary '01, New Mexico Skies, and this year's WSP. Dale, I bet I have video of your scope! I wish I knew you well enough to have recognized you there. Oh well. I too miss the conditions there. The last night there I had all my gear packed up for a quick escape the next day except for my TeleVue-76. I was wearing a sweat shirt, but after setting up this little scope I had to strip down to just a T because I was sweating from the minimal effort. The clouds cleared about midnight, shortly after the moon set, and I had a blast with my little 3". I made a drawing of some little galaxy in Leo (don't remember now which one) that was in the mid 11M range with all the surrounding stars I could see after pretty painful study for about 20 minutes. Many were only visible with lots of effort. After getting back home, I checked MegaStar and found I was pushing mid way into magnitude 13 photographic with many of them! That's what superb seeing can do for you! Again, I want to go back too! Karen (my wife) won a free ticket for next year. I hope I can join her! :) Richard --- In backbayastro@..., "Dale Carey" <stargaz@e...> wrote:
