Thank you for the entertaining report. It's well worth a VROD. I, too, enjoy observing globular clusters. I, too, do NOT enjoy little stingers. I keep a can of spray with me. May your next outing be more fruitful and less painful.

Thank you Rob. Globulars are uniquely special indeed. My next evening was more in line with what I normally do, but not necessarily more fruitful. :) But there were no more stings at least! :lol:
