Night Sky

Zach got a telescope last year for Christmas and due to a million reasons has had little time to really enjoy it. The summer it is light out until past his bedtime (yes I am a mean mommy and had bedtimes still in the summer, and yes it is still before the sun goes down). We had so much rain last year...a lot...so many nights of cloudy skies. So last night was a rare chance with daylight savings time to have a clear night on a weekend with dad home...all key elements. He was so good and enjoyed it a lot. I hope now that the sun goes down earlier we will have many more opportunities for him to gaze at the night sky.

If you'd come to Alaska in the winter (wink, wink), Zach could look through his telescope for like 20 hours per day!! Just sayin'...
