As has been the custom in the past few years, September has presentations that answer the question, “What did you do on your summer vacation?” Many members had an interesting summer that they might like to share. To that end, we have a couple of speakers slated for the meeting but we would love to hear from you. Many members had an interesting summer that they might like to share.  Do you have some images (and perhaps challenges you had to overcome to get the shot/look you wanted) you would like to share? How about your newly acquired equipment - scope, binoculars, eyepiece, etc.? Have something else you would like to share? Please contact me if you wish to be included on the agenda and your presentation (5 -15 minutes in length) will be added.

• The Elusive Sirius B—Blair MacDonald—Blair will address some of the challenges in spotting the elusive star Sirius B, and what he did to overcome them.
