Heavenly

If you're a Skywatcher member, you've gotten your Alert for tonight's Moon, and I gaze at it between these words, it's bright rust-colored magnificence dropping my jaw.  This is the "Buck Moon" for at this time, by some ancient instinct, the male deer sheds the fur from his forehead, bringing him into a new state of being.  He is now something he wasn't.  And every time I watch Luna gaze upon me I, too, become someone else.

My son took Shelby (our 4 yr old) up on the roof to see said Moon. I haven't seen it yet as it isn't up high enough.  LOL I can't  take the chance of falling off a roof and breaking a leg.  I'll take your word for it.  Hee hee I bet it is pretty.  Thanks for stopping by journal and your kind words. I appreciate them.

One nice thing about having a dog now is that when I take her out at night I get to enjoy the sky in a way that I otherwise wouldn`t. Someday I will learn more about all this.
