How was MB last night? Great!

8:25 pm ... I was heading out the door to Montebello and saw the sky over Los Gatos completely clouded over. Can anyone confirm Montebello is clouded out? I'm going to hang on about 10 minutes, and if no replies, unpack the car. :-(

I'm glad Mark didn't unpack the car, even though nobody responded. He showed up around 9:15 PM or so.

MB was clear, and as dark as it gets under a nearly full moon. High clouds passed through from time to time in little waves, but otherwise it was just great, and the fog stayed over the next hillside until I left about 11:30 PM. Dew was certainly an issue in the slightly soggy parking lot.

I mooched photons from Jim Turley, Phil Chambers, Paul Sterngold, and a few others. Work with Eric A. on getting his MX7-C setup working right. Had a great chance to catch up with Mark, Paul, Phil, Jim, etc. -- howling with the big dogs at the moon. Some fun.

Thanks for coming out on a full moon night to visit with Canis Australis, guys (or "Cannibas Australis" as Turley would say!). I do surely miss your company down here.
