For the early risers.
Grab a pair of binoculars Monday morning (5:30)
Step outside and look to the East Northeast sky.
Start by looking down at the ground and then at the sky.
You have a opportunity the see more than half of the planets in our solar system.
Starting\at your feet, then as they are visible above the horizon, lower left to upper right;
Earth
Mercury
Venus
Mars
Moon (Not a planet but a sliver there for all to see)
Jupiter
Other planets not visible are;
Saturn
Neptune
Uranus
Pluto (yea no longer a planet either)
With 5 out of 8 visible I can see 62.5% of the planets of our solar system.

Lost my telescope as a result of Katrina.
Binoculars will be good for this show.
I hope for a clear sky.
I'm going to the pier to see it.
There are trees here at the house blocking the view.
