Skywatch Friday 163

Last Sunday night found me on a two-hour evening cruise on Lake Mendota, Madison. We left about an hour before sunset, and though the water was a bit choppy at times, we could not have asked for a more perfect night. It was a little breezy but not cold, and we had a clear sky for star-gazing on our way back in.

We were surprised not to see more boats at sunset,
 as it was a beautiful night to be out on the water.

There were plenty of boats anchored off shore near The Boat House
at the Edgewater Hotel and near Memorial Union Terrace.
