As a reminder, we do have our outreach on Friday, the 22nd, at Watson fields.
Sure, if you decide to go, let me know here. Forecast for the next week doesn’t look promising and then the moon will be shining bright. You needed to do last weekend, 3 days in a row being clear. 🙂 😉

Duane, I won’t be heading out there at midnight. If you do decide to head out, you may want to switch to Root River instead of Eagle Bluff. Looks like it will clear in Rochester before it does in Eagle Bluff, maybe clear a couple of hours earlier.
Hopefully Friday will be AGNFA. Right now, the Clear Sky Chart for Friday has it clouding up the time you would get out there.
It looks like it may clear up a bit tonight, not sure. I’ll probably just put the scope out the back if it clears completely.
If you do head out this weekend Duane, please let me know, or anyone else.
Anyone thinking of going out anywhere observing this weekend? It looks like it will be clear most every night, at least right now anyway according to the clear sky chart. The moon doesn’t rise until well after midnight, so I’ll be home by then. 🙂

Sounds good to me, I’ll plan to be there. It is time we have a Dean Johnson Memorial Messier Marathon.
I plan to head out there and I think Duane will be there as well, at least he was planning on coming out a couple of days ago.
Duane, were you still going to Root River tonight, Wednesday? I was thinking of heading out there.
I don’t know where to go, but would perhaps be interested in Friday as well.
Upon further review, looks like they are toast. If they took your money, you may be out of luck.
Wow, hard for me to believe, but they might be going out of business.

You can do a google search and find other references.
I see there is an Eagle Bluff outing listed in the calendar for Friday. Is that a go? Has Eagle Bluff been contacted?
Hi Ken, has anyone contacted you? If you get a hold of Randy, he did have a bunch of glasses that he would gladly donate to you.
Eagle Bluff right now is a go for Saturday night. John got word from Eagle Bluff and they said it was OK. Anyone interested, come on out on Saturday.
Is Eagle Bluff available this weekend? It looks like Saturday (Friday?) may be a great time to go there and do a Messier Marathon. If not a marathon, time to get together for some observing.
