The CB Turns Out for Binocular Astronomy

This evening at 9:08 PM we turned out to look at the planet, Mercury. Pretty cool just after sundown you can see Jupiter, the moon, Saturn, Mars and little shiny Mercury all lined up along the ecliptic, east to west, naturally. Then at around 4:30 AM if it's not cloudy tomorrow morning we can get up or stay up and espy Pluto, Neptune, Uranus (the planet)and Venus going the other way. But the morning group aint quite so easy.
