After a long dry spell

It's been a long dry spell, or rather, a long moonlit, cloudy spell. It's been either cloudy, moonlit, or traveling it seems forever. We got back home after a square dance last night about 11:00 and it was clear so I just HAD to try for a few of the gems in Sagitarius. Sgr was already starting to disappear behind a tree but I was able to snag M54, M69, and M70 before the moon got up to high and spoiled things again. At least it was dry, cool, and only a very slight breeze. Very nice night all in all. It must have been a bit hazy as only the brighter stars of Sgr were visible unaided. All three globular clusters were fine subjects in my 8" dob with 25mm ep though, and fairly easy to find.
