Fish Out of Water

Musings and observations about life from an East Coast native now living on the Left Coast in the California State Capitol since 2004. This fish has made her home in Madison, WI (7 years); Portland, OR (2 years); Las Vegas, NV (7 months); Middlebury, VT (3 summers); Marne-la-Vallee, a small town east of Paris, France (6 months); Middletown, CT (3 years); and Marshfield, MA, the fish's coastal hometown 40 miles south of Boston (17 years).

Day 17: Lunar Eclipse

Mr. E and I got a slight glimpse of the lunar eclipse very, very early this morning.  We didn't get to see the change in coloration that had been predicted (red > orange > brown), but we could clearly see a crescent-shaped chunk of the upper right part of the moon covered by a disc-shaped shadow.  Since we had seen the full moon shining brightly earlier in the evening on our way home from the seder, the contrast was particularly striking and rather eerie.
