Earth may soon have a second sun

Earth may soon have a second sun: "The red supergiant star Betelgeuse is getting ready to go supernova, and when it does Earth will have a front-row seat. The explosion will be so bright that Earth will briefly seem to have two suns in the sky."

Thought you might like this picture I took yesterday from Alice' porch of the progress in filling the slide.

Hi,
Just wanted to show you all what is being done to repair the damage done by Sundays slide! What you see on the side slope is three days of rock brought in by dump trucks! The word is that it will take 18,000 cubic yards OR! ( 4500 dump truck loads) to repair only what is necessary to stabilize the two houses, which will make it safe enough to allow the owners to retrieve their valuables. As I understand neither of the houses in the picture will remain .
