Well, I'm out of action for awhile. The winds had died down, so I put the last of my stuff on the wagon and started up 20th ST West. About 1/2 the way between the last house near this park and the next RV park up the street, I heard a car coming up behind me, so I just made sure I was as far to the right as I could be and still be on the road. Then it happened, the car when by and I turned to look just in time to see a freaking teen in white shirt and shaved head leaning out the car window push my whole scope over and then the car peeled out.
Damages: Main mirror off it's cell, Foucer busted off, got to check out telrad, 2nd mirror spider bent and mirror chipped, Rockerbox needs repaired.
So this week I'll be repairing things and hope to have it all together next weekend.
I would like to make a match-pledge of $250 to the Bishop Car Fund.
If other SAA'ers contribute, I will match their contributions up to a total of $250. Your $250 and my $250 should make an impact on the vehicle, and hopefully, we can put this silliness behind us for awhile.
I think the Lone Sidewalk Astronomer of Rosamond needs a little jump start.
What say you?
