The Living Skies Chorus has been asked by The Saskatchewan Roughrider Football Club to sing both the Canadian and American National Anthems on July 4th at 7:00 PM CST at Centre Field.

Found some clear skies and had a great experience with the grandkids. Worth every penny and all the time spent to experience this again, with family this time.

@redwoodwoof I always sleep through that.

The best way to spend a Tuesday morning. #rootcanal

@Pilonandy But the best chefs in France are males.

It's back for the next 2 weeks - the Zodiacal Light. look to the west in the evening from a dark site.

Todays full moon is the Snow Blinding Moon in the Mi'kmaq culture.

RIDICULOUS: Bullies who think it’s ok to walk scowling into a grocery store or rec facility etc. - without a mandated mask on - & put (often young) staff into a difficult conflict-resolution situation. PLS:Stop looking for fights & respect people just trying to do their job.

Got up early this morning to try and catch the old crescent moon about 14 hours from New Moon. There was just enough cloud to hide the moon but I did get a bit of the Zodiacal Light about 1 1/2 hours before sunrise

@soulfood77 @HeritageParkYYC Happy Birthday. So proud of you daughter.

Oh heck yeah. @HeritageParkYYC Harvey's Confectionary

Some afternoon sunspots taken at Cypress Hills Sask using a Nexstar 8SE, a Baader solar filter, & a 24mm lens with a #12 yellow filter.

Some views of this mornings solar eclipse from the shore of Lake Ontario.

Earth Hour 8:30-9:30 tonight. What would this look like if every light was dimmed by just 10%. Most people would never even notice and it would have a major effect on wildlife, power consumption and astronomy. Lets stop lighting the sky and direct light where it's needed.

Tonight when you go to bed, your clock will be UTC-6 hrs, When you wake up in the morning it will still be UTC-6 hrs. Unlike the rest of Canada, we leave our clocks alone but you will have to adjust an extra hour for events in all those other time zones.

This morning Mercury is 0.3 degrees left of Jupiter. Saturn is also in the picture with all being visible with binoculars. Look for it just before sunrise.

Finally a clear warm night in Sask. I got out with the telescope and the camera. I might have split Sirius B but will try again tonight to be sure. I did get a picture of Mars passing the Pleaides. Take a look tonight to see how far Mars has moved in 24 hours.

@darcypa63 Probably. I remember kissing the Cod when I was in Newfoundland

@DMPilon Your giving cod blood?

Not too cod to give blood.
