I must have been too busy Sunday night.
Writing my review of “The Hundred-Foot Journey” for my Syracuse New Times blog, to be posted later this morning there (and teased here).
Catching up on the DVR, with the NASCAR Sprint Cup race at nearby Watkins Glen, and the horrifying news of Tony Stewart’s involvement in the tragic death of 20-year-old local driver Kevin Ward Jr. the night before at a Central New York track in Canandaigua. That stupefying news far overshadowed the fact that I’d picked A.J. Allmendinger among my four drivers in my weekly pool against my dear wife Karen. And he won. After that I FF’d until I could watch the last few holes of Phil Mickelson’s valiant attempt to win another PGA Tournament, a another major as his career winds down. His chip in for eagle in the dark on the last hole stopped a tantalizing inches from the last hole, and young star Rory McElroy in the group behind him parred the hole to win by one shot to add to his collection of majors.
Anyway.
Good Neighbor Tim was vigilant with his camera and his knowledge that it was another Supermoon night in our hemisphere. He emailed.
And I shared.
Yay!
What were you watching on TV last night, and was it worth it? Did you notice the Supermoon? Are you thrilled that my neighbor’s good camera gets a detailed moon shot compared to my iPhone attempts tiny little moon shots?

is Beautiful ❤

Tim has a good eye as well as a good camera. I missed the moon, too. I was watching old DVD episodes of Everwood and Joan of Arcadia. 🙂

I miss Joan of Arcadia, Rachel, one of those gem of a shows that should have lasted a couple more seasons. But maybe Joan would have gotten too old. 😦

She was 20 when she played the part of a 15 year old, so I think she could have played it off. I HATE that they left us with such a good season cliffhanger and then got cancelled. I think if they would have stopped changing the schedule and preempting it when it was on, it would have survived and gone on a few more seasons. In watching the DVDs, I realize there’s not one character I don’t like, nor one episode I don’t like.

I agree, Rachel. CBS did not give it a chance.

Yes, that story has me frustrated and wary about the ways of NASCAR and the flash anger shown on track by the drivers.

He got a beautiful one. This is my experience with trying to get a picture. I got up because it was bright telling me the super moon was where I could see. I grabbed my camera and went upstairs. There was a glare through the window so I was going to outside so I could get a good picture. There was a cat in the yard. As I was about to open the door I noticed how big that sucker was. It turns out it wasn’t a cat it was a damn raccoon. I tried to take his picture but it ran across the street before I could aim the camera. He was fast. Well anyway I got my picture of the moon through the window.

A raccoon and the moon would have been great, Kim, but both are too hard to get good pictures of, I know!
