Yes, and it was the day after my mind couldn't figure out why the evolutionary pun with the topic heading New Primate calls for Anglican unity:D Last nights sleep wasn't any better. Perhaps I shouldn't post anything else today.  ::)

Don't feel bad Vicki... I too couldn't figure out what an ape/monkey had to do with the Anglican church until I actually read the thread. :)

Oh!  It is good to know that Vicki and I weren't the only ones that were thinking along that line!   :D

The sad fact was that he had to call for it, and he wasn't monkeying around.

Mercury should be easy to see the next few nights.  It's not very often that it's this visible.  Don't expect to see the satellite orbiting it, though.  :P

 :( We've had a heavy cloud cover for several nights. And 3" of snow this morning. We'lll have to keep trying on spotting Mercury.

Vickie, you don't have snow falling now, do you?  :)

Richard, if you are refering to the weather, no snow. Our near 80 degree temps zapped it quick enough. But, we still have plenty of cloud cover so we haven't thought about looking at fireballs.

If you are referring to my chilly avatar  ;D, I'm thinking about keeping it as it will be a comfort when it hits 103 degrees in a few months. Besides, it is more interesting to read topics here than change an avatar.  :)

I read that it was suppose to be last week - we didn't see anything but watching the video it looks like we were a little too late. We'll try again when our cloud cover departs. Bonus that we have until May 30th to try to see them!!  :)

If the coulds cloud your view you can always watch the show vicariously through a program called Stellarium. It's a planetarium for your computer. It's really done well All you have to do is punch in the coordinates of where you live and set the date and time and then you can watch the stars and planets cross the sky anytime you want.

http://www.stellarium.org/

Your computer will need to be at least a Pentium III 800Mhz with 128mb of ram to run this software.

If you don't know your coordinates you can find them by entering your address here. You can just put in your city and state if you don't wish to enter your whole address.

Yes!  It was beautiful!  We sat outside for awhile and enjoyed it.   :)

I had almost forgotten that there was a moon.  ::)  Haven't even seen the sun (that is what it's called, right?) since Friday; and not likely to see it until Sabbath.  I heard that the moon was full last night.  It would have been nice to see.

Always a wet blanket in the group... ;) (Pun intended, Wally. You don't want to trade those beautiful trees & lakes for desert do you?  :))

I didn't look outside last night. We got up early for a walk this morning and were greeted with a wet ground. Usually rain out here comes with fierce winds that wake us up. We didn't hear a thing. It was a beautiful walk with a pink and gold sunrise playing on the few clouds in the east.

Sometimes that sounds rather attractive.  I love spring in the desert, especially in the vicinity of an oasis.  It's summer that can be a bit intense.
