Observing the sunspots in 1991.
Was it a hundred years ago, or just yesterday? Seems like both.
This observing session is still vivid in my mind, it was a beautiful blue sky day.
No fancy GOTO systems, just a simple Tasco telescope on a rickety alt/az mount, cheap eyepieces and scraps of paper.
Love them or hate them, those wobbly old "department Store" refractors sure knew how to make memories.
