If you happen to be up early, take a look in the southeastern sky. From San Diego, Venus is rising about an hour and 40 minute before the sun and is showing a beautiful crescent.

Venus is one of my favorites, this fall I spent much more time viewing Venus than Mars. Right now it is bright and it should be possible to follow it past sun rise.

Hi Jon,
I really enjoyed Venus, and it's proximity to the moon, this morning on my way to work.
Unfortunately, I will be sleeping in tomorrow. wink
I almost want to get up briefly, to see it tomorrow.
