I took the Tiger all of seven miles from home to Tanbark Ridge Overlook on the Blue Ridge Parkway Friday night for an astronomy club stargaze. Since it was in the 30's, falling into the 20's, with a light wind blowing, it made a welcome warming room for a few of us, and I could fix hot chocolate & coffee. Had an excellent night of double stars, star clusters, nebulae, galaxies, and Jupiter & its moons. I've got bigger telescopes, but my beat-up little Celestron C5 SCT lives in the Tiger.
Skies permitting, tonight I'll be driving the Tiger to an educational event that the club is doing for a local elementary school. The forecast is 'iffy' at present, tho'.
