Pollen, Wind, Clouds and Warm Beer

Lots of pollen blowing off the cottonwood trees, slightly breezy, and high level thin clouds going one way and low level fluffy clouds going the other way.  90 degrees and a laptop sitting on frozen icepacks switching them out every 45 minutes maintained a stable temp for the laptop to broadcast on NSN for a few hours, and grab enough useable frames to get a half way decent image out of it despite the poor transparency.  At least I got to test out the latest modification, built a solar finder based on a design I found on the web, and it works wonders for quick solar alignment without trying to read the shadow of the scope in tall grass.
