Foggy this morning, no hopes for anything on my last day before returning to work. Late morning there was a patch of blue, so I scampered outside into the observatory and fired up the Edge. Seeing was ok. Not superb, but ok enough to push the imaging scale with the 8". I mainly wanted to get deep into AR2740 in red wavelength to see into the spot and not just around it and managed to get some material in there that is quite interesting. Then gathered some HA and tested the CaK waters a bit. I managed a little bit on AR2741, but the seeing didn't cooperate and clouds rolled in, so I didn't get past HA with it. Towards the end I lowered the imaging scale to get both spots and partial and full discs in HA & CaK.
