Total Lunar Eclipse!
Wow.That's about the best word I have to describe what I saw in the sky last night. Wow!
Thank You Michel Hersen of Portland, Oregon, for providing this fantastic picture!
We talked about waking Jonah up to see the moon eclipsed by the earth, but decided against that after noticing that the sky was mostly cloudy and that he is a three year old boy who would likely become very irate should we wake him just to look at the moon. Then again, maybe not. We'll find out in three years when it happens again!
Megan and I looked at it twice, once it was obscured, and the next when it looked like it did in the above picture. Megan shivered. Not because she was in awe, but because she was cold.
I cannot describe what I saw, because I lack the words. But to sum up, it was neat.
