so I went out after midnight (and didn’t get out of bed till 3pm today!) with binoculars and lounge chair and clipboard. I sketched the open cluster M103 in Cassiopeia, the Andromeda Galaxy (M31), and the double cluster in Perseus. These are fall sights, but this late at night, you can catch them in the summer. The rule of thumb is, every hour you wait a given night is equivalent to waiting two weeks for what you see in the sky.
I also added a vintage observation of the globular cluster M3.
