Last night about 11p got a great view of the moon and Jupiter. Uranus is supposed to be visible but I couldn't fnd it. The moon is almost full and you can see the surface clearly with a spotting scope. Jupiter appears as a very bright object not far to the left of the moon. I saw Jupiter's surface fairly clearly with a telescope (a cheap one) and could see the rings very clearly. The lake is the perfect place for viewing such events. I wish I had a better telescope!
Anyway, it was really neat...should be visible for the next couple of nights. Tonight is a harvest moon.
