Last night of the Mt Parnon Starparty.
I can not believe it was only last April that this picture was taken in freezing
Ireland:



And what was he looking at?
Well, although the previous photo showed cloud,
the night was crystal clear!
A million thank you's one more time to the lads
in Greece for taking such good care of us
for the duration of our stay.
Anytime you want to call over to Ireland you are
most welcome!
