Moon Over Orion

I had to get out tonight. I have been home long enough. A friend returned from holiday travels called after supper, and yes I was out the door. We met up in the most unlikely place. A University Library. It was quiet, almost no people, and had very comfy chairs. We were near to no one, and clear of the stacks, it was perfect. She brought another friend and we sat and talked until midnight, when the library closes. I will have to remember this location for future meetups. Centrally located in our metropolitan area... could not be more perfect, and they even allow food to be brought in, wonder of wonders. What a find!

Moon and Orion pointing the pathway to the Galactic Core, complete with contrails. It was a good night to get out and look up.
