UU's Back in Town! (That's a song -- sort of.)

Hi Judy,

This is wonderful news.

Ironically, just a couple of nights ago, the moon was really bright, not full, but waning gibbous, and there were clouds drifting in front of it. And you know what I said? I said, "The moon was a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas." And when I said it, I thought about your astronomy posts and how I had not seen one for a long time, and now, here you are!

Ohhhhh, UU, there was an awful night a couple of months ago when Mr. Tony tried to tell us where to look in the night sky to see meteor showers or something like that and his directions were so horrendous that my head is still not back on straight.

Had you been able to log on and had you posted the directions, I might have had a chance at seeing those meteor showers.

In fact, I decided to go get the thread where those awful directions were given and show it to you so that you can be properly horrified, too.

Thank goodness you're back to give us understandable directions for looking at wonderful things in the night sky.

Here is the old thread. We sure missed you, Judy.

While you were out...........

Look at the sky tonight
