Donna: I know what ya mean. It’s been raining for days here, so we haven’t been
able to see it very clearly either. That’s it’s only drawback. Nut on a clear
night, it’s amazing, Chuck

Folks: This is kinda off topic, but my wife and I found an app that is VERY
interesting , specially if you are a start gazer like us. The app can be used
with any android device that has wi-fi, (and maybe other devices, but we just
d/l’d it to our Kindle Fire’s) and is amazing to us, It’s called “Star Chart”,
is free, and can be downloaded here
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.escapistgames.starchart You
can see all the stars and constellations above and around you as well as being
able to point if down to see the stars, constellations etc on the other side of
the earth from you, the southern hemisphere (assuming you live in the Northern
one and vise versa). Our grand daughters really love it as well as you can
“pinch and expand” the screen for a closer look and get info that will pop up
telling you how many light yrs that certain star (or planet etc) is away from
us and so on. Pretty amazing what they can do these days with apps. The above
app has links to other similar apps as well, Chuck
