Hunter's Moon



Living as close to nature as we do... we always have front row seats for the special events.  It's easy to become blasé about the moon... you've seen one full moon, you've seen them all.  Ahhh but not SO!

This Hunter's Moon - the first full moon after the Harvest Moon... was special.  This was our second total eclipse of the Blood Moon.

Our first Blood Moon occurred while we were in Marathon, FL. on April 15, 2014.  We were so excited then and had to set our alarm to get up in the middle of the night to watch it.  This time, the eclipse occurred in the early hours of the morning when we're normally up anyway.

There will be two more of these events - April 4th and September 8th 2015.  Hopefully, we'll still be out here somewhere watching and snapping pictures.

Where were YOU watching from?

Going...

Going...

GONE!
