A Much Better View

Our Lily girl has become quite interested in space. Well, that's really quite an understatement. Lily has become fascinated with planets, asteroids, astronauts, space travel...you get the picture.

Last night Tony, Lily, and I were outside looking at the night sky. Right now, Jupiter and Venus are easily visible with the naked eye. While we were discussing how neat it was to be able to see the planets I mentioned how cool it would be to see the planets up close through a telescope. Lily quickly piped in, "I bet Dad Dad has a much better view than we do!"

I bet he does, too!

He certainly does.

Does Baltimore County Library have the LEAP Science program? Harford County has it and it allows you to borrow things like a telescope that you can use at home. We were out looking at Jupiter, Venus, and the moon on Sunday night.

Hi Christine!

Hmmm...I'll have to check and see about the LEAP program at the library.

Thanks for the tip.
