[Leica] Snow storm and the Great Conjunction

[hcummer at gmail.com (Howard Cummer)]

On December 21 more than 6 inches of snow was dumped on Pender Island.
Power went out, of course, as snow laden fir branches crashed down on the 
power lines.
It was cloudy so no change to catch the closest Great Conjunction of Jupiter 
and Saturn.

And the next day was a winter wonderland:

By the evening of the 22nd the clouds had cleared away and I had a good view 
of
the Great Conjunction;
