Thirsty Work this Grandad Sitting!

Ruby and Eric today, we spent the afternoon in the garden after they'd had their lunch.
It was up to a scorching 17 degrees C, but still very cold in the morning.
EXTRA Photo was taken a couple of evenings ago, not good enough for a main blip but in the top left corner is the moon with Earthshine, and in the bottom right you might be able to make out Mars. It was definitely a pinkish colour and it is often visible in the night sky but lately it has been close to the moon. Close to our vision but, of course, still millions of miles.
Currently 178.95 Million miles / 287.99 Million Km / 1.92 au (astronomical units)
