Jupiter/Moon Conjunction
We had clouds passing overhead as Jupiter and the Moon made its "conjunction" in what looks like Jupiter colliding with the moon, at least to the naked eye.
Of course, they did not collide. But they were quite close together when I managed to get an opening in the clouds for a few photos.
I took these shots Wednesday night. That's Venus down toward the bottom of the photo.

Today, we're going to tackle book banning.
During the 2021-2022 school session, bans occurred in 138 school districts in 32 states. These districts represent 5,049 schools with a combined enrollment of nearly 4 million students.
The vast majority of the books targeted by various groups for removal feature LGBTQ+ characters or characters of color, and/or cover race and racism in American history, LGBTQ+ identities, or sex education.
The list of banned books is long and growing longer. Just google "banned books" and you'll see. Florida in particular right now is banning books of all kinds, mostly the ones that feature a Black person on the cover or address LGBTQ issues.
These are 13 that I have read that have been banned at some point.
1. To Kill a Mockingbird, by Harper Lee
2. 1984, by George Orwell
3. The Handmaid's Tale, by Margaret Atwood
4. Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury
5. The Outsiders, by S.E. Hinton
6. Of Mice and Men, by John Steinbeck
7. The Da Vinci Code, by Robert Langdon
8. As I Lay Dying, by William Faulkner
9. Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins
10. The Glass Castle, by Jeanette Walls
11. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, by Mark Twain
12. The Giver, by Lois Lowry
13. Anne Frank, Diary of a Young Girl, by Anne Frank
Please read a banned book today. You'll be glad you did.
