While watching the Jays trounce the Orioles (again), I spotted Venus just above the wall and between two condo stars. Millie, Dietmar, and Phil all picked it up.Later, with some effort, I finally found Arcturus naked eye. Tough to see with the high power flood lights contracting the pupil. Phil saw it too.
Outside, of course, we could see many more stars and noted the Summer Triangle overhead.

Yes, I was thinking of another dome......
Hang on, I am trying to understand this right - you all bought tickets to: "While watching the Jays......SPOTTED Venus" and "with some effort, I finally FOUND Arcturus" ?!?!?!?!!? Did you four even look DOWN at the field ?
You astronomers!
I hope you enjoyed your observing session in "high power lights contracting the pupil"!
Yeah. The baseball game was distracting.
