On Saturday, 15 October 2005, the Hopkins Phoenix Observatory hosted a "Serious Astronomy Get Together" and Turkey Fry (Fire Demo). While the Turkey Fry went well, there was some disappointment that there was no fire demo. The intent was to provide a show and tell and discussion of photometry (single channel and CCD), spectroscopy and CCD imaging. The following are some image from the meeting.

Fried Turkey at last. Gene an Stan do the carving honors.

Looking for the Hubble Space Telescope to Transit (never saw it - the sky was too bright)
and Iridium Flares (Saw a really nice one). Romey (dog) was searching too.

A discussion about a One Star Alignment problem with the 12" LX200 PS telescope.

Jeff explains the finer points of UBV photometry using a C-8
