This morning I tried to see the comet at 6am - just before sunrise. I rode my bike down the trail to a point I could see the eastern sky with out so many trees in the way. I thought I could see a blurry spot right where the comet should be and rode home to get my binoculars. By the time I got back to the spot the sun has come up just enough to make the sky harder to spot stars. I found the star near the horizon I used as a marker point but above it and to the south I lost the blurry spot and could not find it again. Comet ISON is on track to round the sun November 28th. I hope it survives the trip and we can see it as it zips back to deep space. It will probably never return.
