It has been interesting to see the sky the last few nights. It seems like I have plenty of time to see the sky at night, because I am STUCK IN TRAFFIC!!!!!!!!! I leave ABC 4 each night after our 10pm news and attempt to travel home on the I-15. Our road crews have to work long hours making our roads smooth and safe. But I have been in this TRAFFIC so many nights with SO many unfriendly other drivers who are also hitting these closures and detours. I ask....how hard is it to let someone in to your lane when their lane is closed?!!!!! If someone is trying to get in ahead of my car....no problem.....not others.....many drivers are not so nice. There are nights when I wish I had a flashing sign in my car to let other drivers know they are not sharing the road, not being nice and to please let people in while lanes are being closed off. Okay, enough of my traffic woes (maybe I should blame all of this on Mike McKay our traffic guy!!!!)
Now to our gorgeous night time skies. There will be a celestial showcase the next few nights as Venus and Saturn will be converging. The will actually be the closest on the 30th of June. So, when you look in the sky tonight, the brightest object is Venus and look right next to it, you will see a beautiful yellow light and that is Saturn.
