So I got the girls up to watch the lunar eclipse and we all headed outside. It was pretty cloudy at first, but we managed to see it well enough that the girls got the idea. Rhiannon said it was "long". Isadora said that the moon turned brown. I guess I would have liked more :)

Our neighbor had set up his telescope and allowed the girls to look through it. At one point he turned it on Saturn so we could all have a look. I've never seen it before. In fact, I've never seen any astronomical body other than the earth, sun and moon with my own eye (assisted or no). I was really impressed. I mean it was a little dot, but I could definitely make out the rings.
