Well last night I made sure we stayed up to watch the eclipse of the 'Super Moon'. This picture was the best I could do from the safety of our dual-pane kitchen window at 9pm.
I did debate whether to nip outside in my shorts to snap a phenomenal picture, but the thought of black bears grazing happily on our acorns near the house and/or a swarm of late season mosquitoes made me rapidly decide to forego the trip!
Anyway, at least we saw it and made a wish. I was lucky enough to have double wishes when I saw a shooting star whizz through the night sky! I'll let you know if they come true......
Being superstitious as I am, I decided that this moment was as good a time as any to check my 3 lottery tickets I bought for Friday's jackpot of $60 million. Lady luck was with me on this 'once every 30 years' astronomical sight..... I won a free play!
This morning's sighting of the Harvest Moon was better and much bigger. As we waited for the school bus, I snapped merrily in the chill of 9C and offer the following,
Perhaps not quite as spectacular as the sunrise that was taking place behind me!
Enjoy!
