PDX had a great show --- clear skies throughout the area.

But, we do have hills and mountains off to the East, so "moon rise"
here almost coincided with the time of maximum eclipse.

From my front porch, I had to wait for it to rise above some trees,
and so started watching for it fairly early on.
I thought I saw it coming up, but it seemed to take a long time,
so I went back inside to watch TV for a while.
When I went back outside, the moon and the eclipse were well along their way.

But the "moon rise" I saw thru the trees was still there ???
...sodium-vapor lights on the I-5 freeway
