Thanks for posting this Steve. I can be seen in the background of the last picture. After climbing a long stairway in the observatory, at an elevation of 5700 ft. there was a lone chair sitting there. I sat in the chair to catch my breath. Steve said it was a spindly chair and may not support me. I sat down with no problems. Later Steve discovered that it was Hubble's chair shown with him sitting on it in a picture above where the chair was placed. So now I can say I sat in Hubble's chair and earlier I sat in Jerry Garcia's chair. Steve took us all on a great tour of the site but most of it was over my head. Thank you, Patrick for inviting me and buying lunch for Cliff, Rick. and myself. Bruce Stark ------------- An armed society is a polite society. |

It was great having all you guys come up to the Observatory for a visit Bruce ! And don't worry Bruce, I've been working on that Mt. for about 30 years & everything up there has always been over my head.......
