    OH goodie - been wanting to see them here as well and it has been cloudy for past three days... Thanks for reminder...

    Looking East for us has a woods line there... With the morning SUN still below the horizon will light them up big time...

    Getting the cresent moon near them is pure delight... The cresent moon is visible today in the West right now at noon here in Northern Neck VA.

    In my Tempe Arizona days back in the 70s we always liked to go to the Apache Junction Area to get away from the bright Phoenix lights...

    Then we could holler at the Coyotes as well...

    Saturn is in the evening sky and rapidly disappearing into the sun.
