Observaton 12/11!

I observed with Jake and Fetty Saturday night!
We were east of the interstate at Twin Lakes Park, so it was an ideal location for looking at the stars. Early in the night I saw a meteor shower with Maddie! It was so great!
Then later I saw the moon, which was in a crescent shape. And I saw Jupiter, on the ecliptic, which was very bright. Also very visible was Orion's Belt. I also saw Pleiades, which was really very neat. And of course, earlier on in the night, I saw the summer triangle.
