Io Kissing Jupiter, And Its Shadow Clear

[cloudsweeper]

Started at 6.50 (AR102S on GoTo) - Io was across Jupiter's face (but I didn't see it).  No sign of its shadow.  The whole view lacked clarity (target low), so I went back down to x75, and at 7.25 Io was just leaving the disc and kissing it from the west - a nice sight.  Then Io's shadow (on the equator, about 1/3 away from the western limb) came into view, using AV.  Very pleasing!
