04/22/24 Sun in CaK, so many spots!

Hey all, hope you're well
A very clear day today, I only saw a few fluffies in my travels. Still, it was cold, my truck informed me it was at the most 11C (50ish F) at best. Even cooler in the shade!
I got in just after 1:30 and waited for the Sun to clear my tree. You really notice the path of the Sun over the course of a year when you're a long time Solarhead.
I've been doing Solar since 2016, and I have never seen so many numbered spots on the Sun at one time. 16 at the moment; it would have been 17 but AR3641 rotated off to the right by the time I got all this. And there's also two spots to the bottom right of AR3639 which have yet to be numbered.
And that's me for today. I wanted to get out my W/L scope and see if my 90mmHA scope would work with my SolarQuest mount (it might be a weight thing), but I have a few things to do, so it'll have to be hopefully the next clear day.
Clear skies to you all, and all the best
