A magnificent lunar eclipse occurred in the wee hours of November 19. It peaked at 4:02 AM. Needless to say, I did not need to set an alarm. 😌

Great stuff!

Was going to read it at 4AM,but,decided to put it off till now.

Too many other things to ruminate about.

Thanks Don! Of course the wee hours before dawn are good for writing!

I tried reading the boring book technique. The book suddenly turned interesting. I stayed up for hours to finish it. (Yawn)
