  I finally got the telescope out last night.  Celestron 114(mm) Newtonian.  
Jupiter is really purdy and is high in the south.  3 moons were very visible 
as were the major bands.  Saturn is at durn near the PERFECT angle 
for viewing!  It's medium to low in the west.  Looks a bit reddish compared 
to the stars around it.  Even good binoculars are worth getting out for a 
look.  It's seriously one of the best angles it's been at in many years.
  Enjoy!
