The ‘Blood Moon’
We stayed up to see the ‘Blood Moon’.
We watched several movies waiting for it.
It started at 01:09 and finally completed around 03:00 in Northwestern GA.
Pictures: at 02:00, and the final four at 03:10 or so, the moon was completely red, but only appears partial in the photos.

Congratulations to @IMP85. Your Huli Huli recipe was chosen for tonight’s Sunday Suppers. After a fierce showdown between Imp amd @Arius-Trychus, the sugar won this round. I got the entries down to two and Mark chose the winner. Oh, and it was delicious. Sorry @Arius-Trychus, sweet always talks louder for Mark.
@Imp85, please keep an eye out for an email from a Gutter Team Member.
Thank you to everyone who shared recipes and helped keep my temporary “toaster oven, bbq, and crockpot era” alive. Here’s hoping to the kitchen face look flies by fast.
@GGsister1 and my dear friends
I have met someone, and we are happy it happened. We are both widowed and finding understanding in each other. He is a marvelous man, and we seem to fit well together. About a month now that we’ve been seeing each other and so far it is very good. Say a prayer or hold a good thought that it continues as good as it’s gone so far. What a surprise life can hold. This first year of being widowed was tough and there were moments of ambush grief when I least expected them. Finding someone who understands that and walks me through it, all I can say is that this man is a gift and I am blessed. A year is almost past since Joe died and I am better and stronger now. Ironically his name is also Joe. I’m ok now y’all. It was dicey there for a few months, but I’m ok.

In 2008, Elon Musk was running out of time.
Three Falcon 1 launches had failed. More than $100 million was gone. Tesla was on the brink of collapse. He was borrowing money from friends just to pay his bills.
This photo was taken after one of those rocket crashes. No cameras. No speeches. No excuses. Just a man sitting in the wreckage, trying to figure out what to do next.
He had enough resources for one final launch.
The fourth Falcon 1 mission succeeded.
Days later, NASA awarded SpaceX a $1.6 billion contract. Around the same time, Tesla secured emergency funding just hours before the company would have missed payroll for over 1,000 employees.
Musk later described 2008 as the worst year of his life.
He never quit.
The next time you feel like giving up, remember the man sitting in that wreckage. Your breakthrough could be one more attempt away.
