Description

This hobby teaches patience, attention to detail, planning, and how to deal with frustration to those of us challenged in those areas. (At least that's the story I give to my wife). After carefully setting up in my usual spot in my yard, I input the target and found it directly behind my neighbors tree. After quickly looking for an alternate target I changed all my storage files in the computer, found the target ( C31) and started. I noted that clouds were rolling in. Did a filter change and went in the house to watch TV. Went out to do another filter change and found I forgot to start the computer sequence 1.5 hours earlier. Did a merdian flip and saw more clouds, wondered why Astrospheric did not tell me about the clouds. Checked it and found the location was set for Southern California about 400 miles away.... Saved what I had and disassembled the scope setup......However, I stayed mellow and processed what I had!
