Carrying around my 20" obsession is going to kill me,
but what a way to go.

I chanced looking out the window at home here and there isn't a cloud in the sky !
So I just had a look at it here with my 12" and its a fairly non-descript fuzzy blob, usual run of the mill comet with no tail.
although there is a nice ~mag7 yellow star about 4 arc mins away that puts a little colour in the frame...
turned into a nice night, got in a few globulars, the ring nebula and a number of nice doubles before I got tired and turned in.
