Another lovely cluster that I have not seen in years [[2022-11-04]]. This cluster was composed of dimmer magnitude stars. Nothing within the cluster really popped. Found south of Procyon.

I took a look at M 104 to try to gauge how difficult it would be to sketch. It would be wonderful if I had another night viewing it like my time in Idaho [[2023-05-16]] when it appeared very clearly and the dust lane was easily visible. This might warrant another trip up to Terry Peak.
