Due to weather, fires in the western US and lack of solar activity, I have nothing to post at the moment.  I believe that Mike may have some images to post.  Hopefully things will pick up real soon.

It is always nice to be able to get out on a nice day and enjoy an opportunity for solar imaging . The conditions for these was average but better than I expected due to the humidity we have had here recently .
