  1. Sky was clear in the afternoon, was very hopeful, but as it got closer to sunset high level clouds began to whisp in, decided it was not even worth it to set up as i had to be up at 4am the next morning

      the barlow did not help. i am afraid i can not get close enough to the focus point with the camera. it just might fall down to the length of an EP difrence that is stopping me.

      and even if i could find one cheap i would not be able to shell out the cash for a focal reducer, which from what ive read would degrade the image, nor can i move the primary up the tube to acheve focus because it is not my scope

      so do i, and a report early this morning another dam is about to give way. i dont know if anyone will be directly affected by this one, but i so i hope they are ordering evacuations. as of yesterday morning there were only three Lakes that were a foot below optimal capacity. but that was before yesterday and last night. if it keeps up mor epeople are going to lose their lives, and homes to this weather

      I can see mexico being hit with tornados being real bad, atliest here we have fairly sturdy home, welll most of us that dont live in a trailer park. i could see hundreds killed/injured to thousands without homes if one spins up near the "suburbs"
