I Don't Belive it!

About 20 mins ago I went outside just to get some fresh air. What do I find?
A Clear, Cold, Almost Windless sky overhead. Now why couldn't have been that
way at 6:30pm instead of the galeforce winds blowing as there where?

This is why grab and go apos and other small scopes like the ETX became

....or backyard observatories. I have a friend with a small roll-off roof
shed and he can be observing in about 3 minutes, or set up for CCD in a
little longer, and he can close up just as fast. He has a Losmandy G-11 in
the shed and two Newt tubes: a 10-in F/4.5 and a 6-in F/4. He also has an
8-in F/7 Dob that he can carry out as a unit for planetary observing. He has
a TV, stereo, and a bar in the same shed for those nights when it clouds up
but looks like it will clear late!
