Blood Moon - Not!

 A few days ago there was talk about a blood moon and I was all prepared to go out and see what a blood moon might look like.  Earlier in the day a friend had said she hoped the clouds would clear so she could get a good view.  

When I first went out there were lots of clouds around, but it looked like a good possibility that they would be moving on shortly.  I waited a little while and sure enough, pretty soon the moon started to come out from behind the clouds.  I could see just the slightest hint of a golden glow, but it was minimal, and definitely not close to being red.  

The more the moon came out, the bigger it appeared and it did finally escape all the clouds... but still no red. Still pretty cool to see the moon when it looks so big.  I had not actually done any research ahead of time on the times, etc., but I decided to go inside and look it up on my computer.  Turns out there was no place in all of the US that got to see any of the eclipse.  So this is my record of the blood moon that I wasn't meant to see.  

That green spot is a reflection or something in my phone camera... so no UFO.  My phone typically takes pretty good pictures, but I have not mastered night photos yet.
