Well, did you?
I got up on the roof (we have a flat roof) and watched it from there. I had a great view of it; one nice feature about our itty bitty house is the roof; there's also none of the halogen street lights down here! I never knew how many stars were visible until I moved here!

My daughter and I were sitting on the driveway at 9:15 EST last night. We waited for about 15 minutes before we gave up.
I think the eclipse was finally visible by 10:00PM.

Luckily, we had a break in the cloudy, rainy weather last night. Colin and I went out to watch it during commercial breaks during the series. Very cool.

Yes, I was just leaving work  . It was cool to watch it change as I drove home. Fortunately there wasn't a lot of traffic.

Loved it !! Even got my wife outside on the deck to see it.
Fortunately or unfortunately the eclipse was happening right during the WS. Maybe that's what the Red Sox need to win again - lunar eclipse or asteroid hit.

It was a hoax, I tell you! Those damn Yankees fans were just trying to lure us away from the Sox game

Speaking of fog, our past 2 mornings have been pea soup. They even put school on a 2 hr. delay today because of it. I'd never heard of such a thing. (It wasn't that bad, incidentally.)

Crystal Clear over my house. I saw it around 10 est. It was almost 1/2 way. So pretty! And the stars this morning when I woke up were amazing.
