We had a few friends over for dinner tonight. We barbqued steaks and set the Televue NP101 refractor up to cool down while we ate dinner.
Since we planned on visual observation of planets and the moon tonight I didn't go through the usual stringent polar alignment routines I normally use so setup was pretty quick.
Dinner was the steaks, mixed vegatables, ice tea, and a visit to Marble Slab for ice cream! We all were bad and ordered big bowls of ice cream.
After dinner we looked at the Moon and Saturn then went inside and watch several SLOOH missons.
It was a pretty good time...
