Walking back from the book store I looked up into the sky and there he was, bright and bold—It was a bitterly cold, clear night. I could see his belt, scabbard (for his sword), his bow, the star marking his left knee, and the two stars marking his feet. This was about 10:00pm EST (GMT 03:00 +1) looking west-southwest in the sky.
It was beautiful to see on my walk home.
Walking the dog late at night in late August and spotting Orion rising above the trees was always the sign for me that summer would soon be over.
