Heavens-above! in My things ……

The show of the decade is about to arrive, as long as you remember to look up before sun up, and live in the northern hemispheres; comet Ison rounds the sun – and very close! If the sun doesn’t cause it to brake up it’s heat should make the comet very active, so it should reappear with a long tail preceding the icy body; I shall have to get up an hour before sunrise to see it across the other side of the valley. We are on the eastern side on the valley, and from December First it will be rising in the East-southeast, from home our side of the valley is quit high and there are trees.

So by next week we should know if it will be the great comet of the decade – or the one that died rounding the sun!
