Howling at the Eclipse

Wed, 27 Oct 2004 23:59:59 -800

Tonight there was a lunar eclipse in North America! Some friends of mine in
the Bay Area say that the eclipse was already well under way before they could
see it...not so for us Portlanders! Score! After work, a bunch of
MiPLers met at the Gateway TC over on the east side, piled into cars, and
drove out to exit 28 on highway 84 to scale up the cliff to Angel's Rest point.
Angel's Rest offers beautiful vistas of the gorge, and on a clear enough night
one can see all the way back to downtown Portland. Of course, we were going to
do this in the moon-less dark...
