oh, now they come out (Toronto)

Finished my graveyard shift work. Emerged from parking garage at around 4:30. And I saw stars. Great. Just great. Clear skies after a crummy weekend. But I'm very tired and need to go to bed.

As I drove home, I saw Venus through trees.

Drove up the driveway, probably waking all the neighbours, and quickly shut down. In the west, I could see Andromeda was setting.

Pleiades, Aldebaran off to the east. Orion rising. Wow.

Where's Mars, I wondered?
