This is crazy, I just now walked outside to put logs in my woodstove and I looked up and saw the blood red moon. At first I thought it was just overcast. Then I realized that the stars were shinning to bright. It’s a perfectly clear night. I live in the sticks so I’m looking up through tree branches. When I realized there weren’t any clouds I thought, “What the hell is wrong with the moon?” Then it hit me that it must be a lunar eclipse. I can’t believe that I didn’t hear about this. Although I don’t have TV, radio, or read the paper, and I don’t talk to people so maybe that’s why. I came in to see if anyone was talking about this on the Internet and here you are! It looks just like in your picture Katie.

Well Abracadabra!! nice isn't it!! Somehow the video feed isn't capturing the beauty of this one at all! at least the feed I found...there must be a better one somewhere...from some observatory...

I sat and watched it and it never went completely full lunar........went to about full, but then it only went till there was a bright start like light and it started to get light again. I was so cold too

I was so cold too The top right edge was lit just a sliver when I saw it. I wish I could stay out longer and see it but its so cold here too! (-20F) Last night it was painfully cold~ (-31f below zero -actual temp & without windchill)

~ The Sinister Flight of Dancing Orbs ~ I walked outside and saw the moon its bloody face in deep maroon at first I thought of evil fiends planning wretched sinful schemes but then I got my senses and abandoned my defenses it’s just the earth’s orb robbing light hiding Lunar from Sol’s sight there’s nothing fearful in the night just dancing orbs in errant flight ~~~ Abra (2/20/08)

How have you been? I've missed my poetic & idiosyncratic friend!

I’m actually doing quite well. Much better than I had believed I might be doing at this point in my trek. Things are looking up. And not just to see the bloody moon. The cosmos has big plans for me and I’m doing my very best to procrastinate on them, but she’s starting to physical nudge me along now. Even she can only take so much procrastination. Women!
