I saw the full moon rise.
I grabbed my tent and two sleeping bags and headed for the pasture. The forecast was for 5 Celsius. I got so carried away taking photos of the moon I didn’t set up my tent until it was dark from the eclipse. A small tent, really easy.
I used a huge boulder to steady my camera. I didn’t feel the cold until I turned off my camera. I was thoroughly chilled.
I snoozed a little and stepped back out for more photos.
And before I knew it the eclipse was finished, and there was the moon, restored again to her full beauty.
It is such a small tent, I could open the zipper a little and get photos without leaving my double sleeping bag.
It got cloudy at night…
…but in the morning the sky was clear enough for a last parting look. Moonset.
Did you get any sleep?? Thank you for documenting so beautifully. Hope you are warmed up.
I got a little sleep but the coyote serenades and friendly Canada goose chatter occasionally were restful too.
Bison breakfast sausage, eggs, homemade bread toasted, and hot coffee = warm and content.
Many thanks; I was wondering if there would be more ‘red’ in areas with less ‘light pollution’; certainly better than in Wpg. Great; and breakfast sounds good, too!! Anne
You’re welcome! It was my pleasure.
