 I got out on the Gio early enough to grab a couple of shots before storm clouds moved in from the West and blotted out the Full Moon, being covered by the Earth's shadow to create and almost total lunar eclipse!!!

Photos below.

I hope you enjoy the pictures.  That was the day’s excitement.

Thursday August 27, 2026

This morning I watched 2 crack-heads obviously inspecting and divvying up the spoils of a robbery beside the church, and I had a birds-eye view.  After debating with myself for about 20 minutes, I decided to call 911 and gave details, descriptions, and my info (reluctantly)... and then repeated it all to the police.  Then I waited... and took a few pictures... and waited some more... 1/2 hour later the 2 guys packed up, one going East with two loaded garbage bags and the other went West to an apartment parking lot..  I watched for another 1/2 hour, and still no police showed up, nor did any call me for more information.

In the afternoon I decided to file a complaint with the Police Commission about the obvious ridiculous lack of response.  That was 2 hours ago and still nothing.....  I was handing them thieves on a platter and they could not be bothered to even show up...  Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Then, with the weather being 31C again with bright sunshine, I decided to forego cooking and went to The Common for the Thursday $12.99 fish'n'chip special....  The servers all know me by now...

If it does not cloud over and maybe rain, I intend to try to capture the full moon and partial full eclipse tonight. 

I hope you enjoy the pictures.  That was the day’s excitement.
