Hello all, It took awhile but I finally joined the "group". Need to get familiar with the Yahoo procedures and the club site. Sorry I missed the Nov meeting. I...
Hi Ron - Yeah, joining Yahoo Groups is not as easy as it ought to be, but it is free and offers a few other nice things too. It's great to have you on the...
Hi Paul, Always glad to share and sometime when the club is scheduled for a star party, I can come early and we can observe the SUN in H-A! Here's a shot of...
Ron, What an excellent set up for the PST on what appears to be a Celestron mount? A beautiful “grab and go” set up! Can you bring it to the next meeting? ...

First, I'd like to thank everyone for a great meeting last night. Clearly we have struck a chord here. I worked with several folks and it felt like we made...
I am beginning to put together a number of new member packets. Presently, there is a welcome letter from the President (me), some instructions on how to join...
