Total eclipse

Itchy informed me yesterday that there was going to be a total lunar eclipse tomorrow night. The last one was over 3 years ago. We watched that one on the hood of of car on The Island. We'll probably be watching this one inside. It's a little colder here in MN than it was on The Island.

The article also gave the dates for the next few lunar eclipses. There are two of them next year. Amazingly, one is on Itchy's birthday (the big 3-0) and the second one is on my birthday! What are the odds? It's not like total lunar eclipses happen all the time. So having two in one year is pretty cool. But for them to be on our birthdays? That's gotta be some kind of sign!

I remember on the island when "Greasy" asked if the lunar eclipse was due to the sun blocking out the moon.

Greasy is so smart. I bet he's an awesome vet now. Do they give out Noble prizes for vet medicine? He'll probably be the first to get one.
