This morning was clear enough at low elevations to see Orion's belt stars just clearing the mountains in the early dawn sky. This year it's coinciding with Venus slipping in front of the sun as it catches up to earth in it's faster orbit. Soon it will join the oncoming winter constellations in the morning sky. I find myself looking forward to the cooler nights and better seeing of fall.
