There were about 50
tents and few RV's at the park. Every tent had
several tubes that mostly stayed at the camp site, but
the campers filled the small pond area near the ranger
station to keep cool! |

Doris made jewelry and
copied a lot of old pictures while John was processing
astronomy pictures. |

We did a short hike on
the Maple Trail early Saturday. John did other
hikes alone - one trying to catch up to Mac.

Although we had a lot of
rain last month, this creek is now completely dry. A few
years ago the water was about 2 feet deep on the other
side of these weeds. |

John had the telescope,
and he set it up two nights to get some new images.
The first night was a new picture of Saturn.
This
image and the images below were shot at our campsite on
July 18 and 19. |

M20 - the Trifed Nebula. |
|
|
M17 - the Omega Nebula. |
|
M8 - the Lagoon Nebula.
