Super Moon tonight

The Moon is going to be much closer in it's orbit tonight. According to experts, it will appear huge and may even be orange. I can't wait to go outside and check it out.

She makes her own weather charts and I get updates on the barometer all day long.....is weird, but funny and I hope she keeps her interest in science as she gets older.

Fantastic to hear snowbunnie. Glad you encourage her. Sounds like we might have a meterorologist.

I want to go surfing tonight... I bet the waves are going to be fantastic tonight.

It was really big last night. Can't wait to see it tonight.

You wanna see a super moon? Get me drunk and make me pull my pants down.

I am so pissed. It was sunny all day and then got CLOUDY about 7pm and therefore no super moon here in Minneapolis.
boo hoo hoo hoo.

I know. It rained here and we couldn't even get a glimpse. Pretty and foggy, but, cold.

Well, the super moon lived up to the weird dream hype. I don't feel like I got more than two hours of sleep for all the crazy dreaming I did. It's going to be a long day :/

I got a few pictures of it and they turned out pretty good. I'll send them to you.

Did anybody happen to take pictures of the full moon last night? I really wanted to see it, but the darn rain and fog kept me from doing so.

It was orange where we lived at first, and so we went to Corpsewood to go ghost hunting. Once we got there, it just looked like a normal moon, but it was bright enough for us to trek through the woods. It was beautiful!
