The Dark Side of the Moon
Wednesday, February 20, 2008 at 10:05AM 
Don’t forget this evening’s total lunar eclipse, which will be seen all across Canada; that is, if it’s not cloudy. It starts at 8:42pm EST, so that’ll be 5:42pm PST, which is our local time. It’ll still be light here when it starts, but it should be dark for the fifty most spectacular minutes in the middle of the three hour eclipse process. Somewhere around 7pm (10pm for you easterners), we can expect to see a red or orange moon that will slowly become more brown.
Plan to look heavenward tonight to see the show.

When I looked at the post on the RSS feed I was hoping for a Floyd reference, or at least David Gilmour.
I guess I'll be watching the moments tick away that make up my dull day until 7 pm. Then I will watch from my home town.
I guess my title worked as intended....
Missed the lunar eclipse. Did see the most beautiful double rainbow around 5PM yesterday. It ended on our side of the mtn--it was very low and looked more like a ribbom in the sky.
It was too cloudy here (at least when I went out to look) to see the eclipse.
