4. I saw it sideways last night. (planets were on the right)

I thought it looked rather strange. I did not realize those were planets.

I remember thinking...."what a weird place those stars are in...I don't recall seeing them like that before"

24. Nature puts on a daily magic show. But, we're too "busy" to notice it.

There are no end to "wow!" moments every day, if we'd just pay attention to something other than our all important selves.

The whole universe can feel it.

It's just Putin rearin his head and coming into the airspace of Asia.

Venus and Jupiter showed nicely last night.

Venus's exceptional brightness is unmistakable, but I thought the nearby body was a star. Cool!

33. I can see the moon..but there are clouds around it where Venus and Jupiter should be.
