Well Backyard Observatories did it again. Number 87!
Our good friends, Scott and Diane Horstman, as well as the rest of the crew; Kenny, Don, Jason and Nikki - designed and built our new observatory this past week. It's number 87, but we've named it PCW Memorial Observatory after my late grandparents, Pauline and Charles Withers (Paul's idea, and one that I absolutely loved!).
Here's a picture of my grandmother this winter. She passed away only three weeks ago at 91 and is missed terribly. But I was very fortunate to give her her first and only viewing of the sun through my Maxscope this winter (which is also very special to me because I bought it off of another very good friend, Gary Gibbs, aka Halfmeter).
