Robert Armstrong, Sean McCauliff, and myself went to Coyote. At sunset
There was also Liu (sp?) who brought an XT8, cookes and hot tea. Thanks it was good.
I saw a few dozen things this night. Some of the more interesting things where...
-Rob pointed me at PK93+5.1 a PN within PN NGC7008. A double * is next to a fuzzy region. Within the fuzzy region there are two visible *s (14th mag?) There is a brighter part of the fuzzy patch on one edge. This is PK93+5.1. This website claims that PK93+5.1 is not actually a separate object:

I'm not able to find any additional info on the object. LX200 10" 12mm nagler
-NGC 936 -Core easily visible. At higher powers there is a * near the core and a much extended region. Looking at a photo I suppose the much extended region is part of the bar. LX200 10", 12mm nagler
-Stock 2 - Easily found near the double cluster. A large diffuse cluster of (mag 7?) stars? TV76, 35mm panoptic
