Bummed or Rain, Rain Go Away

Last night was a lunar eclipse ON the winter solstice.  You know who should have had prime viewing?  Los Angeles.  You know who got to see rain and clouds and morons trying to drive instead?  Los Angeles.  I'm not one to complain about the wet weather.  It is soothing and when last minute shopping, it comes in handy for clearing out open air malls (see moron driving comment above).  But to have missed a big ole red moon on the winter solstice seems wrong to me.  I mean, I should have been having midnight margaritas and singing "you put the lime in the coconut".  Alas . . . beautiful pictures here.
