Lunar Eclipse
We sat out on the porch last night wrapped in a blanket (sure 60 degrees isn't that cold, but at night in your PJ's it's not comfy) and watched the moon turn red. The kids thought it was pretty cool especially when I told them the story about how Columbus was saved by a lunar eclipse. It seemed to take forever to get from where it was half-way covered to fully shaded, but it was worth the wait.
That's not fair. It was so humid and cloudy hear in College Station you couldn't even tell when the moon rose or where it was supposed to be. But I guess you know how that goes. Now I have to wait till 2010(whoop) for the next one, and it will probably be just as humid and cloudy. At least someone got to see it.
