Astro: April Fool?

Of course with the current weather it won't make much of a difference, but at least theoretically you could ;-) Stefan, My wife says that I can go live at the observatory as long as I leave the check books and credit cards at home! George N That's why I image from inside the house -- 20 miles from the nearest shopping town. Rick -- Correct domain name is arvig and it is net not com. Prefix is correct.

After a month of being retired I've concluded that it's better than working - snow or not! Congrats George. Now here's a saying you can Live By!. Never Put Off Until Tomorrow What You Can Do The Day After! ;-) Crazy Ed |

The forecast for next week is "snow", but I bet that it will just be some slushy stuff at night. I've had enough snow for this year Rick can keep it at least until fall! .....and last night my wife and I watched the moon approach the Pleiades with a small scope on the back deck and today I drove up to Kopernik to check on the 20-inch which others reported as being dead. I found that it worked fine, but the drive electronics might be failing. After a month of being retired I've concluded that it's better than working - snow or not! George N After 3 years of retirement I'm finding I need to get a job so I can get a vacation and catch up on everything I've been too busy to do.

Rick, You're not the first person to warn me of this problem! My vision of retirement is golf, astronomy, more golf, more astronomy, hiking, canoeing, etc My wife's vision of retirement is me wearing a leather tool belt and carrying lotsa power tools, with a copy of "How to repair anything" in my pocket!
