Pretty well, but we're not far from town and that limits the sighting. We're in eastern Washington state. George McGovern 8 hrs ago #8

I've tried to sleep later, surfered, but the cat and dog have me so well trained it's become routine. Thanks!

Here's what Shadow has to say:

Since he’s gone and I’m older, I sleep later.

What state are you in? I've noticed other posts of yours with interesting skies. Thanks for sharing what you see. I'm going out in the country one night to look at the stars. Light pollution and clouds make this place a bad one for stargazing. I'll bet you can see the stars pretty well from there.

It's important to me to impart nature's beauty. A pretty sunset, dramatic sky, a lovely sunrise.

On the fifth of June, last month, we went out to feed the horses and saw this sky:


To see something like that, or the sky in this post, is a privilege that must be shared. So I do.

Thank You!
