    Happy New Year from Michigan!

    I hope you all had a great holiday season.  Santa brought me a solar filter for my 8" dob, which I got a chance to look through yesterday.  I didn't see anything but black, and then my wife told me that the instructions that came with the filter said I had to look through the scope during the day, not at night ::).  Cool sunspots, and clouds blowing by!  Then the cloud cover completely took over :'(
    Haven't been out at night for several weeks, as the lake affect keeps us cloudy on most nights during the early/mid winter months.  Well, just wanted to say hello and wish you all a peaceful and starry 2015!
