this is my last shot , trying to do too many things with my wimpy dial-up computer and just in case anyone was wondering ?? The Red Sox are just about ready to break the curse.....top of the 8th inning, Red Sox 3 Cardinals 0 men on 2nd and 3rd no outs Bellhorn up......

Nice pics.....I tried to go out and see it but it's way too cloudy here today......

Yea, I was in the same boat loz.. I went out around 10:30pm, and there were so many clouds, I coudln't see any stars, or the moon anywhere. I could almost see the moon this morning at 4:30am when I got up, but there were still a LOT of clouds.

Neat pics!!

The skies here were crystal clear and we had a wonderful view of the whole show! We set up our telescope so the kids had an awesome view of it all.

I tried to rig up my camera to the telescope

We saw an eclipse here a few months ago. It was neat.. we could occasionally see a sliver of light, shining from behind the shahdow. It was cool. But last night woulda been nice to see too. Oh well.

Meg

It was pretty awesome!

G-Mom ~ I definitely think the animals were tuned into what was happening last night - at least at my house! The two older cats - sisters - were at the window almost all night staring out, and Amber was making loud guttural sounds unlike anything she's done before.

The pictures here are great - thanks for sharing!
We were only able to see clearly from the beginning til it was just about covered over. After that was solid clouds - too bad... :p

When I was an animal control officer years ago, every time we had a full moon we'd get TONS of calls about dog bites, and also about PEOPLE fighting over something involving a dog.
Seems like ALL animals are affected by the moon!

For the record, Freckles didn't bite me last night! Been two nights in a row now!

The Clouds cleared out in time for me to be able to see. LOL

Yes I had a great veiw out here in the booneys.turned security light off.sat in chair beside 40 ft flowerbed till was up over the pines then was able to watch on the front porch.Enjoyed 4 bud lights.went in for the 5th one and the dam dogs got gate open and took off...so YES>IT EFFECTEDTHEM& ME>>..................EXERCISE!.I tried chaseing 3 dogs who tottally ignored me 2 went one way the other a diffearent direction.Tried to catch the 2 but when they went in woods.I dead stopped.snakes...no way am going in there armed with just a flkashlight...getting dim.went back to house.drank 5th beer thenm took truck to find no luck...moved to hammock to watch eclipse.moon statring to show again now.hearing wolves howling& cyottee.so grab flashlight again.here the 2 in woods.walk back to my road to call in direction of house.get them back in house.leave gate open go back to hammock.The lil B finally comes pranceing in yard.i was eatng popcorn by then& did not share with NO DOGS.dogs were bad.Eclipse was great.I walked over to lake to see moonrise.was a creamy orange.I couldn't get hold of my neighbor forhis telescope cause he wasn't fishing with hubby.they decided to go Baytown.was funny they pull up and are like"whats wrong with the moon?" MEN,they never listen to us.been telling him eclipse was comeing up for a whole week,then had to explain the eclipse to him...not sure he enjoyed seeing it laid out with my hanging baskets though,but he got the point that 2nd time with them.
