Re: PESO - A Flower.

Bach's cello suites are among the most beautiful music ever written. Du Pré's BBC recording (when she was 17!) is sublime. Love Gould's two versions of the Goldberg Variation. But sometimes I just want a bit of Bikini Kill. Go figure... Cheers, frank On 27 September, 2015 2:37:25 PM EDT,

Re: Total Lunar Eclipse

Looks like it might get a bit hazy but the moon's still low in the sky and clearly seen. I think I missed a nice moonrise over the Lake. Maybe I'll wander down and see what's what... Cheers, frank On 27 September, 2015 7:19:31 PM EDT, John wrote: >Unfortunately, it's

Re: PESO -- Cloudy Moon (was) Re: Total Lunar Eclipse

I walked along the lake for about a 1/2 hour, hoping the light clouds would lift, but they didn't. Gave up, went home. About midnight I brought the garbage out and there it was: about 1/4 obscured by the earth's shadow. Quite spectacular! Like Ann, I don't have the equipment to do anything
