My anniversary gift from Ana, a new Solar Filter for the new telescope, arrived today. I had to go to FedEx and pick it up after work but tried it out when I got home. It’s amazing what this telescope can do compared to my old one. I didn’t think it would make much difference on the sun, but it surely does.
A neighbor came down to see what I was looking at, but just when he did the sun went behind a think blanket of clouds. Maybe it’ll be clear tomorrow and he’ll get to see it then. I also plan on taking some pictures with the new setup.

Hehe, it was a gift _from_ her
I’m not sure I would have liked to see the reaction if I had gotten one for her, lol.
