Its me again....

I did get a fantastic view on Friday night, but I did not have a camera handy.
When I tried to shoot soem photos on Saturday and Sunday, it was very overcast.
However, using a small but powerfull digital camera I was able to get a
pixilated image capture through the overcast. Not worth publishing, but it was
fun trying. If I have my Powerbook with me at teh next meeting, I will show
them to you.

Right now I am trying to figure out how to locate and view the probe/comet
collision on July 4th. Best fireworks in the solar system.

Regards,

Steve
