Default Name this object

Okay, viewing in So-Cal around 10pm or 11pm. I think I was around
Pupis but could be way off, I was very tired. Anyway looking at a
open cluster that I spotted with naked eyes (Faint fuzzy seeing about
6+), view binocs looked pretty sharp. Put the 8" SCT on her, and I
could see an VERY tight open cluster with a planetary nebula in it, it
didn't look like diffuse nebula but I am no expert. Anybody know what
object this is?
