The night sky

Venus and Jupiter are dancing. It's happening right now. And Mars is glowing red beyond Cassiopeia and the Big Dipper. This picture is from fb page Beautiful Things Go on line and take a look.

On the way home from dinner the other night my brother pointed out Venus and Jupiter to me in the sky. Left to my own devices I would have thought it was planes circling LaGuardia Airport. Anyway, it's worth venturing out one night to have a look.

Today's a so-so day. Good for taking a walk as long as you're bundled up. Also a good day to tackle those tax returns. Me? Sitting on the edge of my seat waiting for my refund. Tip: you'll get it very quickly if you file electronically.

I've just started a new book that I am liking a lot so far: The Cat's Table.  By: Michael Ondaatje.
