Not sure what you are asking.  You talk about setup after 6pm, but 
then say you can't get there before the gate closes.  Hope you made 
it out there tonight.

Things went pretty well tonight.  Had a decent break in the clouds 
from 5:00 to 8:30.  Got a good look at the sun;  three prominences, 
two filaments, one active sunspot region, and another odd thing that 
I'm not sure what to call.

Mars had a good polar cap and some surface markings, when you caught 
a steady patch of air.  Saturn was a ball with a stick through 
it.  Just wasn't high enough to get out of the clouds over Vegas.

Great ISS pass.
