The Wolf Moon

This full moon will be the brightest of all moons this year and as an added bonus, you can see Mars (but not the candy bar, unless of course you happen to hold one up in front of you....but I digress, imagine that).  Anyway, Mars is to the left of the moon and it looks like a reddish dot.

We saw the moon last night and it was AMAZING.  And we also saw Mars (and no, not the candy bar....but now I sort of want one).

I think it might be the law to howl at the Wolf Moon...better not take any chances, so get out there tonight and howl away!

Too Good To Be True

The sun is shining ever so brightly, the birds are singing, the squirrels are scampering, and the lake is actually visible again in the spots where the ice has melted/shifted.....however, the radiator is churning away at full steam (and I keep the heat set at 63).  You just shivered, didn't you Itty Bitty Barbara?  

Anyway, based on the whole radiator thing and the frost on the cars this morning glistening in the sun, I'm thinking that it's going to be deceptively cold out there and I'm putting off becoming one with nature by staying in and looking out. 

At least until the cabin fever sets in.
