    Lunar eclipse coming up here in the States early Monday morning (5/16); I'm going to get some images.[/QUOTE]

    It took me a few seconds to realise what you meant by 5/16 as I'm pretty sure there aren't sixteen months lol. We put the day first. Either way the 16/5/22 eclipse may be a tad difficult for me. So I'll look forward to your pictures Reggie. :)

    Haha, sorry about the minor confusion, but you got the point, lol. I'm looking forward to the eclipse; it's supposed to be an extra-long event with totality lasting 85 minutes!! Also, Mars and Neptune will get up close and personal on 17/5 and Jupiter and Mars will get extremely cozy on 29/5. My mornings will be BUSY!

    The Tourists were a smart-looking outfit. Smart-sounding, too. Thanks for the post!

    I'm confused a lot these days anyway. Although come to think of it I believe that's always been my default setting lol. Sounds like you have some great sessions planned Reggie. I plan on planning about as far ahead as looking through the window and only going out if I can see something in the sky from now on.
