Will you be up until late tonight, or up early tomorrow morning? The latter might be more rewarding…
FIRST DAWN OF 2019: THREE PLANETS AND MOON ALIGN
Want to welcome 2019 in grand style? So happens, the year begins with an eye-catching celestial alignment that will light up the eastern sky at the first dawn of 2019. Watch the Moon, Venus, Jupiter, and Mercury line up—and connect the dots! Here are Bob’s viewing tips.
Three planets and the crescent Moon will create a string of pearls early New Year’s morning. Maybe it’ll be easy to see, if your New Year’s Eve celebration runs very late.
Back home, this is what things look like on the last days of the old year. Thanks one and all for joining us off and on on our journey through 2018; hope to see y’all in 2019!





And one last picture:

Happy New Year!
Thank you! I have enjoyed your writings, recipes and musical offerings and look forward to the new year’s ones. I will look early morning for the planets, clouds notwithstanding, because by 9 pm I am done, whenever it is.
All the best to your family 😊🎊🎶🎆🎇🎉

And to you as well, friend. Our girls are determined to stay up until midnight, but I am wondering if we old folks are going to make it, haha. Thanks for visiting and interacting; it’s been very pleasant indeed. 🙂 Oh, one last thing: I recognized your dogs on instagram. 😉 Hope your Lily is going to be alright…

She is stalwart but so hard to see her struggling! Praying her surgery goes well. Thank you.
…I see a dog enjoying the wooded hillside in a photo here!

We’ll keep your Lily in our prayers as well.
Oh yes, our lives are enriched by two dogs, too, a young whipper-snapper white GSD named Freki and an old lady black Lab called Daisy. 🙂
