Want To Do Something Totally Romantic For Your Spouse???

Tomorrow, Wednesday February 20th, there is going to be a total lunar eclipse! Why not pick up a bottle of your favorite wine on your way home from work and be prepared to watch the fantastic colors of the eclipse with your man/gal (yes, I'm easily pleased). For my friends in South Africa, I think your eclipse is visible Thursday.

(Times listed in MST)

When: 6:43-10:09 p.m. with total eclipse starting at 8:01 and lasting about 50 minutes

Maximum Eclipse Beauty is around 8:26
Partial Phase Begins at 6:43 pm
Total Phase Begins at 8:01 pm
Total Phase Ends at 8:51 pm
Partial Phase Ends at 10:09 pm

Isn't that just the most romantic thing you can do on a Wednesday night? It will be so amazing! It is so cool right at that point of the total eclipse when the sun starts to ooze out around the earth to get a peek at the moon.

Oh, and also cool will be Saturn which is going to be real close to the moon and I think we will be able to see the rings. Is that neat or what? I'm serious...this is cool...I mean, maybe its the two glasses of wine I've had this evening...but I don't think so...I think its just the fact that I'm a lunatic. Get it?... Lunatic? ha ha

If I lived by you I'd bring you hot chocolate and some slippers and make you sit on the front porch with me for the whole thing!

Ha ha! I watched it for a bit with my baby tonight, he really had no idea of the significance of the occasion, but it sure was cool. Would have been better with some wine.
