Ow.

my toes hurt. i have lots of photos. we're in totality now, and i may or may not go back out again later. probably not since as my extremities regain feeling they're hurting a little... waiting for hot chocolate to warm up now. saturn's to the left of the moon if you're looking at it yourself, like two fingers to the left, a bit yellowish.

I loved the way the eclipsed moon was flanked by Saturn and that other bright star... Regulus, they said, maybe? Sooo beautiful. We pulled out a pair of binoculars and watched Saturn's rings for a while.

Yep, Regulus.

I need to get a pair of binocs, and a big telescope for myself.
