Good morning all,

You might try finding the planet Venus today before noon. The air is so
clean and clear you should be able to find Venus to the west of the Moon.
That is to the right of the Moon about 20 moon diameters away. The Moon
gives your eyes something to focus on beyond your normal 20 feet at rest.
