"Look, up in the sky!"

 Early Tuesday morning, March 3, there was a total lunar eclipse.

It began about 4 am EST, with totality starting about 6 am to finish 7 am-ish.

I was outside at about 5 am, then went back inside to warm up at 5:30 am.

By 6 am, the clouds had rolled in, and I saw NUTHIN'.

However, the journey was worth it, and I managed to snap a few images.

A nibble of the moon missing, about 5:08 am.

A big sliver still, but the Earth's shadow covered much of the moon, about 5:30 am, and it was hazy.

An arty shot of the clouds that wandered in just when it was gettin' good!

I stood in the backyard, facing west.

Am thankful to be able to indulge my desire to witness sky and celestial events; solar eclipse in April 2024, Northern Lights now a few times, meteor showers, lunar eclipse, comets, the ISS, and I take photos of cloud patterns too.

Years ago, The Hubby insisted that he accompany me when I wanted to excursion out to watch the night sky, but now he makes sure there is enough fuel in The Cat Car, so I can go and do as I like.

You see, he was bitten by mosquitoes, and although there isn't a bug in sight right now, he's had enough, and why tempt fate?

There is something to be said about the quiet of watching the sky while solo.

And not worrying about getting enough sleep for work the next day; yay for retirement.

Let's have Twozday on Wednez-day!

Manny and Chili Bruce roam in tandem or solo.

The trick is to capture each when there is enough light, which is rather up and down 'round here, from sunshiney to cloudy/snowy in a matter of minutes.

Manny, in the big bed.

Chili Bruce, doing something odd on the floor.

Brofurs, snuggled up.

CB on left in brown fur, Manny is right with bald eyebrow patches.

March 3 is International Writers' Day.

To celebrate the contribution of writers, editors, and poets to literature, culture, and society.

A few author memes found on social media to celebrate the day:

Am a bookaholic, and will ask anyone I meet what they are reading.

So admire writers and authors!

Now that I'm retired and don't have that job limiting my reading/listening time, I'm focused on the 1,084 titles on my TBR list, which includes some of the folks who may read this post.
