I just love when the full moonlight comes into the window. When did they start naming the moons? btw, are you using a different font? It's much easier to read now. Enjoy this hot day. hugs, peg

"When did they start naming the moons?" I use the names given by Native American Indians in the NE.

"are you using a different font?" No, but I'm glad it is showing up, easier to read.

I love the full moon and watch for it every month. I even have a full moon notification on my phone that tells me when the next one is going to be. With each notification a 'thought' comes with it. For this months moon this is the thought they shared

:*** Our full moon thought for June ***

I noticed it last night, first at about 9:30 p.m. just as dusk was beginning, and then again when it was bright and beautiful around 10:30. Lovely, and perfectly timed with a bumper crop of strawberries happening! -Jenn

Thankfully, the clouds moved on and we were able to see this Summer Solstice moon. It was just lovely! I, too, love the change of seasons and looking at the night sky. We used to belong to a local astronomy club, and I miss using our telescope.

Have a great week!
