Surprise, Surprise. Guess what's cancelled?

Post by jjones7777 »

Greetings all,

Due to the snow conditions at all three observatories, the Messier Marathon for this coming weekend has been CANCELLED. It's rescheduled for Friday night, April 25th w/ Saturday, April 26th as the backup. While it's true that we won't be able to get as many objects due to the later month, at least (hopefully!!!) we won't be setting up our dobs in snow up to our knees, and freezing those knees off as well.

Someday, someday...

Here's to CLEAR, SNOW FREE, AND RELATIVELY WARM SKIES!!!!
