I know, I'm secretly holding out for the HH. I think it will be that,
M78, NGC 3628, or possibly M51. I really like M20, but that won't work
this time of year. M78 is ideally placed this time of yesr for evening
work. How about you closet CCD lurkers, will the ST-8 chip do a nice
job framing M78? Seems like it should.

OOOOHHHH.... I love the Iris Nebula too. What is it, NGC7023? Or is
that the Helix? It might require too much time though.
