Just FYI

West coasters get the good views. Us folks in the middle of the Pacific are supposed to get the BEST views...

Fucking clouds. :(

I went outside a couple times to see it. Makes me kind of feel like I need to rub my eyes when I look at it because the moon doesn't look right. Pretty cool.

Had an hour of perfectly clear here.... totally orange moon. Coolest thing I've ever seen.


I'm watching it come out of the other side now...

i watched as it turned from a 1/4 crescent, into a red ball. Rather fascinating. :)
then went for a jog once the sun came up. beautiful start to a day, except its supposed to be about 90º, so hopefully I go for a swim later.

Something woke me at 0300, so I went outside and saw it for a few minutes. Had to be up at 0530, so I didn't stay long, but it was pretty cool.

I had a clear night... and even set my alarm for 4:45 to see it, but I didn't even bother to get up when my alarm went off. lol.

I'm kinda wishing I wasn't lazy and did get up. Oh well, no big deal.

Saw from 3:30 to 3:45 here in NorCal.
Pretty cool , everything was quiet and dark, It was turning a little orange on one side as I went back to bed.
Need a new camera.

My balcony had the perfect view. It nestled in between two palm leaves at one point. Looked really cool.

Saw it and tried to get a picture of it with my G5. No telephoto = the suck.
