Did you see the “blood moon” this morning? I hope so, because it was beautiful. I don’t
have a tripod, so taking night photos is difficult at best. I did manage a photo when the moon wasn’t yet
in full eclipse, just before it dipped behind the trees.
For once, I wasn’t battling rain or clouds or even antsy
dogs who can’t stand still. Just before dawn four or five deer joined me near
the snowmaking pond. They were
interested in getting an early morning drink and were content to ignore me,
even as I ignored them while the eclipse was taking place. I can’t remember the
last time I got to see a full eclipse, though I know it’s been quite a
while. Several have occurred during
cloudy weather and others simply weren’t visible here. This time, though, none
of those things occurred, and the sight was one to remember.

I forgot; damn! When the moon is setting here (as it was during this eclipse), it is often behind a row of trees and I didn't notice it even though I was outside when it was occurring.
I've seen a few. Last night was awesome. One was on the Kek, sitting on a rock at the edge of a lake with fellow campers.
