From our front porch we can watch the full moon rise over the mountains...it is so beautiful. They both still take my breath away..the moon and my husband.

I've seen white, yellow, orange but never blue.

That is just a wee bit too small to see with even my 16 inch telescope.<br /><br />Trouble, they say that more babies are born during the full moon, but I don't believe that is true. Can not find any facts to verify that.<br /><br />Gypsy, it's orbit around earth is similar to someone using a hula-hoop. Wouldn't it be boring if it came up and set in the same place all the time.<br /><br />Sixbears, The most interesting viewing is along the terminator. That dividing line where the there is light on one side and dark on the other. When you get up to the mountains, check it out every night you can. You will see different things each night.Dizzy-Dickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14150939928800538404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3297986341537650775.post-27109016415458242652012-04-04T10:49:15.104-05:002012-04-04T10:49:15.104-05:00Also Easter is determined by the moonAlso Easter is determined by the moonAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772195580511867949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3297986341537650775.post-54808997989513815062012-04-04T10:37:33.762-05:002012-04-04T10:37:33.762-05:00I just picked up a nice spotter scope from my dad....I just picked up a nice spotter scope from my dad.
