Sunday Night
Sunday and it was a cold windy day,
I was set up by 5pm as the moon was up. I didn't think I'd stay to long as the wind was a cold one from the north. When I did get some people over, they all came between 7pm and 7:30, that's when everyone was heading home and the few who stopped came over for a fast look at the moon. All totaly I had about 7 people stop by in that 30 min time frame, but the wind started getting stronger and even those going to FF was using the drive-threw. -- The Lone Sidewalk Astronomer of Rosamond Telescope Buyers FAQ http://home.inreach.com/starlord Astronomy Net Online Gift Shop http://www.cafepress.com/astronomy_net In Garden Online Gift Shop http://www.cafepress.com/ingarden Blast Off Online Gift Shop http://www.cafepress.com/starlords

Hi Dennis,
Maybe what you need is one of the OBSESSION 20 or 30" telescopes.

Sunday Night
A truss style scope would not do well up there, well, if the sover was tight
it would be ok, but in the winds that would be like having a full set of sails up. The best sunday nights are those connected to a holiday or it's not so cold. Funny thing was that by 11pm the winds had died but I was doped up with my aspin to do anything, the cold gets my knees pain level to go up. -- The Lone Sidewalk Astronomer of Rosamond Telescope Buyers FAQ http://home.inreach.com/starlord Astronomy Net Online Gift Shop http://www.cafepress.com/astronomy_net In Garden Online Gift Shop http://www.cafepress.com/ingarden Blast Off Online Gift Shop http://www.cafepress.com/starlords "Mark F." wrote in message news  Btwf.18805$em5.2733@trnddc05...Hi Dennis, Maybe what you need is one of the OBSESSION 20 or 30" telescopes.

Plus the ladder needed would not be good at all for up there, that alone
would be asking for trouble. -- The Lone Sidewalk Astronomer of Rosamond Telescope Buyers FAQ http://home.inreach.com/starlord Astronomy Net Online Gift Shop http://www.cafepress.com/astronomy_net In Garden Online Gift Shop http://www.cafepress.com/ingarden Blast Off Online Gift Shop http://www.cafepress.com/starlords "Starlord" wrote in message ...
