Fish Out of Water

Musings about life & travel from an East Coast native living on the Left Coast in the CA State Capitol since 2004 and now also spending time at a home-away-from-home in Evanston, IL. This fish has lived 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); & 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.
