I promise!

My guiding skills have improved considerably, though I haven't had a

scope out in a couple months (busy at work!).  

I'll also be at Stellafane this year, and I'm thinking of hitting the

Oregon Star Party again "on my way" back to CA.

That's a priceless collection of stuff (including the model A and all 

the fleas) -

wish I could be there!

I would wear a flea collar...

Share some pictures, please.

Hi Folks:

I'm wondering if we'll have other Astro IIDC users at RTMC again this

year?

I'll be bringing my fleas (640x480 original flea and 1024x768 flea2,

both color) and my G4 to run them this year.

But because we've got a pesky moon in the sky, and because I'll be

driving my Model A, I've decided to take the Tak EM-10 with the C-8

and probably the Megrez 80 piggyback for imaging.

Probably I'll do mostly planetary, unless the seeing isn't up to

snuff, in which case I'll fiddle with bright DSOs like clusters and 

stuff.

I park at the end of telescope alley every year. This year, I'll be

easy to spot - just look for the "black and tan" Model A truck.
