Blood Moon

Last night was a full moon plus a total lunar eclipse that equals a Blood Moon.    We could see it through our east windows but bundled up anyway to go outside.  No clouds.  Quite cold - well below zero - no wind.  The moon was definitely reddish.  Before and after the eclipse you could read a newspaper in the moonlight - it was so bright.  That was the noticeable difference.  With no light pollution the stars were brilliant.  It was a glorious night in the northwoods.
