    I’m glad that you were able to get your scope out and it sounds as if you had some good seeing for a change!.I am patiently waiting for my chance but,it doesn’t appear that it will happen any time soon as we have yet another storm getting ready to move into the area.Heh,story of my life this winter!.I haven’t had the scope out for any serious observing since before Thanksgiving.Oh well,good things come to those who wait I guess?!.More pix please!!!.
