Autumn and the Night Sky

How quickly the world changes as autumn drifts through September and into October. And now October is almost past, with most of the leaves fallen from the trees here in south-east Alberta. The weather has been glorious, with warm days and clear nights. The moon and mars are visible in the sky, along with stars. For the best view of the night sky, leave the glowing lights of the city and find a secluded area where it is dark.
How wonderful to walk peaceful trails and deserted hillsides in search of tranquility.
