set up after nap

I set up the 8" telescope beside Mom's veggie garden. It was humid and the Moon was bright.

After cap nap number 2, I was ready to go.

When I finished aligning on Polaris, I headed to Saturn.

I saw three moons to the right of the rings, at low power. Some light clouds interfered. Later, at 76 magnification, I picked up a fourth moon to the right.
