The Planets Align


We looked for a good westward view to see the conjunction of the Moon, Venus, and Jupiter in the evening sky on February 26th. We ended up at Glen's parents' home.




Clearly visible!




Then we went to Taco Bell in Macedonia for dinner and got another good view there.




Venus and Jupiter were still clearly visible on March 14th, seen here through the branches of our oak tree.




On March 25th, we had another chance to see them line up with the moon.




Even as they were setting, you could still spot them in the backyard.
