| I am a bit late with this but in case anyone wants to see an almost total lunar eclipse it is happening tonight....about 8:00 my time (mountain)...10:00 Eastern, I think, and Skin, you probably already had it or whatever, lol.. It won't happen again until 2010....I just hope there isn't a cloud cover here...yea, I am kinda nerdy about space things  The other night the space station was visible and I think I saw it, but not sure....

| Snowing??? 
We're expecting a heatwave on Saturday!!! Approx. 97 degrees.
I thought we were heading for a little 'cool' and was preparing to get out the quilts to put back onto the beds

| Oh man I wish I could have seen it. It was too cloudy here and well snowing. We got 4 inches and are expecting more snow, ice and freezing rain starting again tonight.
Escarcha - If I sent you some money would you send me copies of your pictures? I would love for the kids to see them
