Late night fun!

No, no, no... not that kind of fun, freaks!

My son and I are getting up at 4 AM to watch the Moon Eclipse Jupiter. Been ready for it since November, hehehe. Next week, it'll be the Geminid Meteor/Asteroid Shower, so you'll know where we'll be come the 13th. You're more than welcome to stop by. :o)

I'm not geared up to take pictures through our telescope (yet!), so if you want to see what it'll look like, you'll have to get up in the wee hours of the morning with us. Menu to be served: Hot cocoa with marshmallows, and Twinkies (click here for the recipie).

[I'll talk more about the effect Twinkies have on me in another post.]

the ONLY time i see four am is if i stay up all night....and i've been known to do that a few times. ;-)

sounds like fun, and can't wait to hear the twinkie story!

Wow. That's early. That's very, very early. I'm not even sure there's a deity conscious at that hour. ;)

i'm with jen... the only time i'm up at 4am is if i've been up! and if i am awake at that time i've been known to spout wisdom like "this is too late to be this early" and other such nonsense.
well, have fun you astronomers! (and go easy on the twinkies)

I really can't wait until you are rigged up to take pictures. I love pictures taken through a telescope. It's so awe inspiring.
