  I'm still lurking here and have not forgotten about my long overdue OR on the Australia trip. I took a fair amount of notes during the trip as well. It'll come in the next few days. As for the weather, we had about 3.5 out of 7 nights clear (if you add up the nights--including sucker holes).
   
  I hate it when work gets in the way of observing and posting notes on TAC!

One report I was hoping to read was from Bill Drelling who was with a
large continent of US observers (many from Texas) and Aussies at
Coona just last month. I heard the weather was not very cooperative,
unfortunately. I'm hesitant about a large organized group such as
this one and the Obsession group (in October) as I more enjoy the
interactions of a small group and having full use of a personal scope.
