Yesterday, I posted my moon photos from Thurday night in a photo collage with comments on Facebook, but not here on the blog. The series was spectacular, as was the sweet little story that went along with it.
I knew that last night was supposed to be a blood moon and an eclipse, but I also knew that I'd be at the Chateau de Larnagol for a concert organized by my friends Philippe and Catherine Jolly.
It appeared that everything could work timing-wise, but I wasn't sure about the location of the Chateau and the weather.
We were in luck.
After the concert, everyone retired to the terrace after a run at the drinks and buffet table in the kitchen. I wasn't the only one wandering around to see if we could see the moon event.
Little did I know, no one had to go far.
There it was.
Above the causse and pretty much where I thought it would have been if I were to guess.
What a treat!
Some were more interested than others, but it was fun to see groups together at various locations talking about the event in many languages!
What was even better for me, was that I actually ended up being able to come home and catch the later configurations of the event from my upstairs bedroom windows.
They were different, but pretty spectacular too.
These are the times when I know I'm leading a charmed life in the Lot...
magical places,
wonderful friends,
natural events, and,
natural highs!
Happy Saturday!
