I’m hoping it clears up here by tonight! Rainy, gray day here in ‘Sconny.

My wife reads these celestial news stories then I find myself out at 3 am standing with her in the field looking at what usually ends up being a disappointing meteor shower, moon that doesn’t look red (to me) or clouds that block what we’re supposed to see.

I’m sure sometime today when she sees my enthusiasm waffling I’ll get the line..... You’ll be 115 years old when this happens again.
She’s pretty good at math I’ll give to her.

Really I think she’s looking for something else out there in the field but the plow doesn’t work as well as it used to.

Wonder if the event will cause a west coast earthquake?.

.... look higher up in the sky to see three other planets on parade: Saturn, Mercury and Mars.

So this conjunction will be below Mercury?.

That is low.

Sunset in CNY is 7:46 tonight and the forecast is for clear skies.

Almost unheard of when some wonderful celestial event is happening.

Funny...it just dawned on me that my youngest will be around to see this again in 2065.

Mind blowing, eh?

Even more mind blowing...I was his age in 1965.
