Don years ago had told me that he wanted me to help sell that when he was gone, and Mark, being knowledgeable about all things AstroPhysics is going to be setting up and testing it all out.  Don had not used it in some time, but we got the equipment together and we’ll probably bring it to some events in October to show it to people.

WE stayed another hour …the seeing never really settled down. It was a fair view but jumping a bit.  Still NICe to see though.  We left around 400am.  A nice evening out.
