First Time

Gayle just showed me my first lunar eclipse, which was quite spectacular since the moon was full and the eclipse was total. We watched a black arc pass over the moon, gradually obscuring the golden crescent at two o'clock. The moon was not completely blacked out; it was more as though someone had painted a gold disc with charcoal paint; you could still tell the disc was there, but it was covered with a thick, grey, grimy coating.
