Observation Oct 4

At approximately 6:35am, upon leaving the house to head off to school, I looked up at the sky to see the fading celestial sphere overhead (as my father drives a convertable giving me this oppurtunity to look at the skies often when going to Pine View). I was happy to spot Orion, recognising his belt immediately, the Hunter standing at about 45 degrees in the night. I proceded to watch him during my trip from my home on Siesta Key to Osprey, and only around the Bay Street traffic light at around 6:50am. I could not make out the redness of Betelgeuse, but seeing Orion early in the morn did improve my day.
