Stef and Cairo warm up before we head out for a walk and to see the lunar eclipse's progress.
Partial eclipse at about 7:46. I took some of the total (after 8:06), but the partial is more impressive. You can already see the reddish color developing. Makes me wish I had a higher res cam, and a real telephoto lens. Someday.
Back inside to recover from the bonechilling cold (15F, windchill 6F according to our weather station) in front of the fire.
And soon: s'mores!

[Update: s'mores were yummy, and oh so nutritious. Anyway, forgot to add we saw a few Leonid meteors, but no Northern Lights yet. We'll check later.]
[Further update: here's a pic of the partial above the Washington Monument:
Cool. Just like mine, 'cept it has the monument, and better resolution!]
