total eclipse of the moon

Today was filled with what’s become the usual – hanging out laundry, ironing, dishes, juicing, general cleaning, all interspersed with a healthy dose of relaxation. New favorite activity: reading, or simply doing nothing, in the sunny, cushioned window seat of the breakfast nook.

I was originally planning to leave tomorrow for another WWOOFing site with a friend from the Lemon Tree, but the arrangements fell through and I’m really enjoying myself here – and know there’s a lot I can still learn from the Pujjis. Oh, and they say they enjoy having me around! So, the new plan is to stay until the new WWOOFer arrives on Sept. 2.

We all went out to watch the lunar eclipse tonight, but Donna was the only one who stayed up with me for the whole thing – in one direction, that is. Neither of us actually made it long enough to see the moon start to get ‘uncovered’ but I figure I can just turn my pictures over, or Photoshop a fuzzy blob moving the other direction on a full moon shot ;)

Happy Birthday Charles! Thanks (I think) for inspiring the Nikon addiction – seems pretty appropriate that today was my first venture into astronomical photography!
