    I was out last night at our local neighborhood park in Rochester to continue working the bugs out of my home made star stracker.  Tried to photograph M31 at about 10 pm.  Note to self… kind of important to charge camera batteries before going out to do a long exposure session.  Also important to focus the lens before starting  the exposure.  :-[Will try again tonight.
    What are the plans for this weekend?  Any chance of going to Eagle Bluff?  Dean, Randy, I did end up buying a laser collimator from Orion, and would love to try it out this weekend.
    Anyone else have thoughts about gazing this weekend?
