Astronomy binocular summer

My astronomy binocular and I take back all our complaints about the poor weather we have been having in the Chicago area this year when it comes to astronomy. Last week was great! I love Indian summer and so does my Nikon 10x70 astronomy binocular. Last week we had a wonderful dose of Indian summer. Clear skies, cool temps, dry air - what more can an astronomer want? My astronomy binoculars got a great workout and I had a blast putting the Nikon 10x70 on a tripod to split double stars in Cygnus, Cassiopeia, Andromeda and so on and, since I was in the neighborhood, anyway, I centered the Double Cluster in the binocular, locked the tripod down, and just sat in my chair with a huge smile on my face and a cup of hot coffee in my hands. Doesn't get much better than that with an astronomy binocular.
