Pretty cool, even though I only got two this time. Perhaps

Saturday, using 10" / 1600 Dob / 2" 40mm eyepiece for 40x, I could get all
three in the field of view. Sunday, Saturn was too far away from the other
two. Monday evening, Saturn will be about 2.5 degrees below Venus, and
Tuesday evening make that about 3.5 degrees.
