Observation blogs: last hour

Last Monday I had little homework so I was able to spend a bit of time out on the porch looking up. I am now used to seeing things at my house and it doesn't take too much time to orient myself and identify a few stars. I had trouble naming the smaller more obscure first magnitude stars but overall I am doing better. I realize how much different it all is from starlab but in my opinion it is much better to look at the actual sky rather than a recreation. Hopefully next quarter I will be able to go to some of the stargazes out in myakka.
