Observations

Time: 8:11
Location: Mi casa

The moon was waxing crescent, and looked very 3D. It was pretty cool. Also saw the summer triangle. Took awhile to figure out which vertex was which, but when I used the telescope was applied I could see the fainter stars around and identify which constellation was which. Saw Sagittarius, was very happy, was like 'kaboom kaboom!'. The trees blocked out a lot of the view, and it was pretty light outside, so only alpha and beta stars were visible sans the cheapie telescope.
