For a change I was able to view the Moon in total eclipse in an almost clear sky..I believe this was only the third I have personally viewed.Many other times the hyped eclipse was hidden by clouds.
Used binoculars and saw a light red tint at totality ,more of a rose color than the brick red remerbered from the last I viewed.
Wife and I stayed up, watched the eclipse until about 3:00 AM. Sky here in Pittsburgh was clear. No bugs. We spread a blanket over our laps. Drank some brandy.
It was a very good night.
