As we are inclined to do on a regular basis, we gathered on the deck at Casa Collins two nights ago to watch the International Space Station flyover.
It was low on the horizon to the southwest and, we learned, was actually over Oklahoma at the time and heading over Mississippi and Louisiana on its orbit.
I'm pretty sure that's when the people inside shot this...
Meanwhile, on terra firma, some people -- this image from New Orleans reveals -- couldn't bear to look.
