Really clear night tonight but very windy, so we tried going out nonetheless.  Good news: was able to slew decently to a few star clusters and get some really nice views with the widefield Siebert 36mm eyepiece and also took a horribly underexposed shot of Bode’s galaxy (was fun regardless).  Bad news: Frostbite and the contraption to block the streetlamp fell due to the wind and part of it cracked… back to the drawing board (I should have gone to engineering school or I should have picked up another hobby).
