Hey BD, How have you been?
I was wondering where you've been.
Outside looking at the sky, huh?

Been doing a lot of that myself lately.

I live in the sticks about 90 miles from NYC. The skies
get fairly dark but nothing compared to what you probably
get. They say the city lights prevent me from seeing much
more than the basic brighter stars and planets. I don't
get much of the filler stars. Just the basic constellations
and a few other odd ball stars.

I only get to see the feint stars when I go upstate to the
Adirondack Mountains that's when I get to see a lot.

You must get a nice eyefull where you are.

Have you been able to get a good look at any of the planets?

I haven't tried to look at the planets through the kid's
telescope. They just got it this winter and it's been to
cold and snowy here to set it up outside.

Every morning I see Venus staring at me while I walk the
dog. Walking the dog gives me a good excuse to be outside
walking at night. I have to be careful though while I walk
with my head looking up. Never know what I might step
in...

Keep us posted with what you see.

-Clapper

Yep, things are super here, BirdDog. Thanks for asking.

As I sometimes say .... got the world by the tail. Have so much to be thankful for.

The wife and I just got back from a weekend in south Florida. Nice break given our recent snow and ice. Turned right back around and we out of town again. Just walked back in tonight, so not much market watch for me this week so for.

Don't mind sitting on my hands awhile. No rush. Will study some charts tonight. Might look at selling some puts.
