Everyone,

There is an observing session scheduled on the CHAOS website for 
tonight at the Farrington Point site ... and given the predictions of 
the Clear Sky Clock (which are pretty good) I think I will show up 
there around 8 PM or so and set up to see the conjunction (is that 
the right astronomical term?) of Mars and Saturn.   Last night I got 
the telescope out, put on a focal reducer and used the widest-angle 
eyepiece I had ... and I could get them both in the same 
field-of-view.   So tonight should be even easier!   Perhaps I will 
try to take some pictures of the event.

So if you would like ... come out and join me at the Farrington Point 
site tonight and see all the things that Bryan mentioned at the 
meeting Tuesday!
