Steve and I got out for a few hours last night. Venus is still not thrilling, but getting slightly higher. Saturn was its usual beautiful self, but getting lower every night. We saw Titan and one other of the 'amateur moons'.
Then we looked at M39 in Cygnus and M23 in Sagittarius. Shortly thereafter the Moon rose and Mare Crisium was almost all in shadow. Fun to see Moonrise. The corn down at the Flatin Farm has grown noticably since the StarBQ.
I really like my (almost) new van. It beats the heck out of hauling my gear around in the pickup. ;D
