Went to the corner last night, had about 15mins of daylight left before
Jupiter poped into view, one guy in a fancy pickup pulled up and asked what
I'd be looking for with the big scope. Told him I'd be giving views of
Jupiter to who ever stopped by, he said he'd come back and off he went.
Wish I had $1.00 bill for everytime I've been told that, I could buy another
car. Big thing was FF was selling ice cream by the truck load, no hot meals
last night and not one person came over to have a look see, Was home by 10pm
with the rest of the town dead.

It was so dead last night, that with the "little" cool air that came in, I
could have easyly fell asleep sitting there by my scope. When I got home at
10am it was all the way down to 88F
