Cocoon Nebula
I decided to try C 19, the Cocoon Nebula, again. This time would be from the back yard in equatorial mode. At the outset of the night, I did a goto to C 19, and it hit the neighbors’ house. I changed the schedule to start after 11pm, and got the Pinwheel Galaxy M 101 first.

The Cocoon Nebula worked some of the time, but it must have been behind the neighbors’ house, or maybe a tree, for a significant chunk of the night.

As you can see, I only got 151 fits, when it could have been much more, maybe 240? So I definitely was blocked by something during the night.
