awwww....much like my last trip across country.
We drove into Salt Lake City in the dead of the night.
It was beautiful.
But up in the sky the moon was the weirdest formation I had ever seen!
It wasn't round....wasn't even eliptical. It had a shape totally unfamiliar to either my husband or myself.
We watched it for as long as we could, because by the time we left Salt Lake, it was also gone. Back to a normal moon once again.
I don't know what caused that strange sight. I never saw it before and haven't seen it since. Just weird. Just over the skies of Salt Lake. I hope it wasn't something just the two of us saw. weird.

I'm slightly colorblind.
So I saw the moon once this way:
With one eye, it looked green.
With the other eye, it looked orange.

Watched the moon rise, and there was a warm air mass between the horizon and myself, the moon appeared to be squashed. As it rose above the viewing angle of teh airmass, it seemed to shrink and wriggle oddly.
(Not in a really noticable fashion, it just was odd.)

Anyone see the few shooting stars on Wednsday evening?
They were tiny, relatively so, and made these anemic faint red streaks in the sky.
Saw one not too long ago that looked like one of those sparkler fireworks.
It streaked bright and yellow, ending in the sparkler like spray.
Looked pretty neat.
Didn't have a camcorder on hand [8-()
