[Lvas] Crab Nebula

[Rob]

Doug,

I did go to the Messier Marathon and bagged all 110 of the objects.  I 
couldn't have done so without the Mallincam.  M74 and M77 were just 
barely discernible in afterglow of the Sun and M30 the next morning was 
just a little whiter blob on an almost white sky as I tried to beat the 
rising sun.  It was a hoot of a time for me.  I relaxed Saturday night 
and just showed visitors various objects on the Mallincam.  Phil and 
Joanne must have spent two hours with me.  And the Horsehead thrilled 
folks again under mag 4 skies.  We had about 50 folks there this weekend.

Talk at you later.

Rob
