Just had an astronomy equipment parade across campus to set up for a photo shoot later in the week. I was at the rear of the parade to watch for things to fall off the 2 rather broken, ancient pieces of equipment in front of me (that look cool, therefore, photo shoot).
I really felt like I should have been waving and throwing candy at the students we walked past. "Clear skies!"

@sundogplanets Oh, I still have one "sad old refractor" as well. With that one the first thing I saw when I brought it home was saturn. That was in august 2017 and the start of my astronomical observations. My newton with a goto arrived shortly after in october.
