Nov 2023

The past few mornings that I have been able to at least catch a minute or two of Venus and the moon do-se-do around each other. Tomorrow might be able to see the moon one more time before the new moon on Monday. Then it will be about Tuesday evening or Wed. when you can see the new crescent again after sunset.
