Same thing here in SC Tom, but the only difference is that if I want to look at the stars at night I only have a 4 month window in which I can safely do it in because at night is when most of the deadly snakes and all of the local Gators do their hunting. But even at night here at sea level living on a golf course with no light pollution it is very clear.

Thanks for the stargazing tip - here in the mountains with our elevation
and no light pollution you can't believe how bright the stars and
planets are in the sky on a clear night. So since we are in the midst
of some very clear weather these days, I will be sure to take note of
your tip tonight. Thanks!!

Went for a walk tonight with my son and the lovely one and noticed a
few bright planets visible to the naked eye...thought it was unusual
and went to the Nasa site and turns out it's a fairly unusual
alignment of 5 planets and the moon that won't be back for 30 some
odd years in the night sky.
Check it out at
For some reason this stuff sends me for a loop (I just recovered from
that comet that blazed across the sky 6 or 7 years ago).
I'll go back to staring at my navel, now.
