Full Moon Fever



There's full moon tonight. if you're able to see it, will be extremely bright and seem really close. Here's a link with the details http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2008/12/081212-full-moon-biggest.html A few Christmases ago my sister and brother -in-law came to stay with me for the holidays. My sister brought her telescope and we were able to see the rings of Saturn, Jupiter and the moon in it's full glory. I also have loved watching meteor showers at Lawrencetown Beach with nothing but a flash light, a thermos of hot chocolate and a good friend. Lawrencetown Beach is a great spot for looking up at the stars and not having to worry about city lights...not to mention breathing in that ocean air and having the ocean waves crashing at your feet is pretty cool to.
