Sun loving

The crocuses are loving the sunshine! So are we, though it's much chillier than the forecast would have us believe.

The sky was clear for much of the day, and just after sunset MrM drove us up to Holme Moss to see if we could spot the planetary alignment. Venus, Jupiter, and Mars were the only ones visible with the naked eye, but it was worth going up there just to see such a starry sky. About as good as it gets here, but not a patch on star gazing under the darks skies in Northumberland and the Scottish Borders...
