Mark,
You should of come over to the Peak. We had a great time like in the old
days next to the ranger's house. John Gleason was even there with a
refractor. In fact, there were a few big refractors there just like in the
old days. Last night reminded me of one of my first times up at the Peak on
a cold January night in 1995 when the winter triangle and milky way
glistened right down to the mountains south.
