The USNO site was down for two days so I didn't have an exact time of moonrise last night. I was out on the deck waiting and hoping. We had a bunch of clouds and a light mist falling so I didn't know if I'd get to see it at all. Suddenly the coyotes all over the countryside started up a long sustained howl. It was one of those spine-tingling moments as the full moon emerged from the clouds. Pretty cool. I'll post a picture of it later. To celebrate the first day of spring, felt more like a sunrise picture was in order. Hope you all celebrated!Sunday, March 20, 2011

The sunrise is very nice and appropriate for spring. I waited until over 1/2 hour after the predicted moon rise. Finally, I peeked out behind the largest cloud in the sky. No good pictures. Just cold feet and frozen fingers.
