Observations page beta

July 31st, 2006

The top portion just links to the old site and the observations there.

I’ve transferred all the posts over, but not yet the […]

Working on an improvement

July 14th, 2006

I am quickly using up the space that came with my Verizon website account, so I am working (kind of slowly!) on moving […]

I removed the ISP-provided images decorating the pages and replaced them with my own. On the main page, you will see my telescope (edited from a picture taken from a star party with GIMP) replacing the crescent moon. On other pages, you will see a selection of my sketch of Pleiades replacing the […]
