All Members Nights at CRO

Chris, there are mostly visual folks using pads tonight.

The biggest issue is that the wifi is not working. Power looks good. Perhaps the service is down.

OK. Headef. ETA close to 10

Not seeing any issues with the Interent at CRO.

Excellent viewing night with a fine group of new and regular members. A warm, light beeze most of the evening until 10:30. Sky was perfect. Randy, Tom Graham, Marvin Abbot, Chris Petroff and myself all co-hosted the Macys, Hunter, Alex and 2 guests. I ran the C14 for everyone. Venus, the moon, M42, M41, a few double stars, the Crab Nebula all showed up very well.

The internet was not on when I arrived at 6:30. Everything looked normal in the closet. But, by the time Chris Petroff arrived, it had come back on. Nothing wrong on our end, so I think it was the service that was down for a couple of hours.

We closed and locked up at 12:15. By then the breeze had become a wind, and the temperature had dropped into the 70s.

Did you see the Cat’s Paw print … and the Whirlpool?

No, we didn’t “see” them looking like that. Did you? :grin:

“Visual is not dead.”

Yes, sir … with off-center viewing and squinting my eyes just the right way, my scotopic vision really peaked. I may have strained my eyes a little, but I don’t mind…

You’re probably a quart low of rhodopsin, then! But you definitely didn’t see color with just those rods.
