Sounds like fun, I hope the weather holds and we get a little dry weather. Maybe Mike will have the opportunity to get a nice star test on his new 15" truss. My calendar is marked.

The Rush Valley site should be free of snow after this weekend, but it will be muddy for a few more days still. Probably by next week end (12th ,13th) the ground conditions will be good enough for a little party at the Pit n' Pole. The moon will be waning, entering the last quarter, and won't rise until about 0:25 I am going to mark my calendar and check the whether as that weekend approaches. Mike Bailey built a new 15" Truss Tube Dobson this past winter and I don't believe he has had a chance to get first light with it yet. Jim Gibson _____ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
