Re: Saturday morning 3pm WOW
Pure serendipity, Lou! I don't own a dog, but as Bruce once commented, I'm always up in the 'wee-wee' hours of the morning.
Usually, it is the best sky of the night, with calm winds and most everybody finally turning off their lights. It's as good as it gets, and I'm glad you saw it today. My chase of Comet Hartley has had me out often recently near dawn, and it never disappoints.
