Not here - I'll have to wait till 2094 to enjoy a lunar eclipse on the shortest day Grin

A bit of sports, healthy food, and I'll get to see it

I'm totally covered in clouds..... Sad

If I live to be 100, I'd still be dead 44 years for the next one. So, I guess I'll have to see it form the other side of the rainbow.... Wink

It's supposed to be cloudy here tonight. It seems like it's always cloudy when something cool happens in the sky, I haven't been able to see a meteor shower or an eclipse in years. Roll Eyes

Well, perhaps a tad late for the exact time, I looked into the sky to see this eclipse of the moon thing -- but I couldn't see the moon anywhere...
didn't see any sense in standing out in the cold looking at a moonless sky!

Didn't catch the eclipse, but when I left this morning before sunup the moon was so large and bright. It was a Kodak moment, for sure! Wink
