    I too got out on Sat. night, for the first time in over a month, I think.
    About midnight, from Chanhassen area.  Light pollution not too bad unlesss looking to NE(Mpls).  Saturn was very pretty.  My two friends had never seen it before.  My buddy accused me of slipping a little picture of the planet in front of the telescope when he looked through the eyepiece!  His wife just gasped when she took her turn at the eyepiece!  😮
    It's so fun to see that reaction from others :D.
    Viewed Saturn, Jupiter and the crescent moon last evening with my neighbor.  Sky was more turbulent, but still viewable.
