    6Y9 Fly-In 2018 (labor day weekend)

    NexStar remote - haven't invested enough time in it yet to justify the cost of adding on StarSense - that's plane rental money! Also gives me incentive to make sure I understand the manual alignment process. Similar to flying: the pink GPS line is nice as a supplement, but don't lose the...

    6Y9 Fly-In 2018 (labor day weekend)

    Celestron, C6-S GT, Schmidt-Cassegrain tube. Been a while since I cranked it up, hope to find a good portable power source for the mount. I'm still somewhat new at the astronomy waters too; we can all test the waters together! What scope ya got?

    6Y9 Fly in- 2016

    Great weekend, weather and friends. The apple picking was successful - one deep-dish pie is currently in the oven. Or, should I wish to sell it, I would have to rephrase: "An artisanal, small-batch pie, featuring sustainably-grown, wild-caught, fresh-flown-in apples from 100% organic orchards...

    Hi, all! looking forward to seeing everyone on Tuesday night; the 'brand X' chili powder, a good size package of andouille, and a bigger jambalaya pot, are currently rolling on I-294 en route to OSH! If folks are looking for things to bring, we could use beverage cups! Thanks, Leslie

    Cancer patient transport at end of May - best options ??

    Thanks to all for the replies so far. I don't know about this individual's immune system status, although being immunocompromised would certainly be a key consideration. On the topic of treatment centers; I won't say that one town is better than the other, although Chicago does have some...

    Decisions changed - we are out for today. Will spend some time running many errands, and celebrating our anniversary a little early today (the official day is Monday, but I fly out for business tomorrow afternoon for most of the week).

    Gaston's 2013

    Flightline, friends, food and drink - lots of good memories of Gastons. Got me through my unexpected surgery a few years ago, a mental escape from the hospital bed. It's been a little while since we've been back, perhaps time to consider returning; will have to prioritize packing the magic...

    Great Lakes/Midwest February Lunch

    That's right, you weren't at Muncie - we're actually sisters :) Everyone have fun at MiTierra - been there for 99s meetings in the past, even if I had to take the wingless chariot - sounds like you'll have a great group! My meeting is in the other direction this time - up at 3CK.
