[AZ-Observing] Mercury In The Morning

On my way out of the driveway at 6:30 this morning, I was treated to a nice 
view of Mercury in mid-twilight.  It's at about 7 o'clock position with respect 
to Jupiter.  The "Sky Gazer's Almanac" from the January 2005 S&T shows this as 
being the best of Mercury's elongations for the year.  It is a couple degrees 
above the horizon at astronomical twilight, and that's about as good as it gets 
from our latitude.

It looks like it will be visible for another week and a half.
