    5 of us got out there, Jeff, Ellenvega, me, Evan and Kate (Quiet Earth). Nice people.

    We saw some stuff, M57, M13, the Perseous Double Cluster, M31 w/satellite galaxies, Alberio, Polaris A&B, M33 in Triangulum, Stock2 'The Stick Man' in Perseus, but it was "Pocket Astronomy".

    Then the clouds rolled in and even though we stayed for an hour and a half, we packed up and went home. Ellenvega said "When we get home, it will probably be clear". Sure enough it was.

    FRUSTRATING!

    Evan and Kate are very nice. I got to Eagle Bluff just in time to catch the ISS going over. Another minute later and I would have missed it.
