Moon with Mars just emerged from occultation. Low clouds, bad seeing, and a hill got in my way but I saw it.

@stoneymonster

At least you got to see it! A friend who lives near Loma Prieta said there were clear skies but he's surrounded by really tall trees so he could only see it when it rose above them.

@godzero yup we have a lot of trees, makes astronomy a challenge sometimes

Right, my friend doesn't use his telescope as much as he'd like to.
