69: there's a moon out tonight...

a blue moon.

y'all know what a "blue moon" is? it's the second full moon in a calendar month. and it happens every... blue moon. '-)

baby bliss and i read about it on the internet (where else? LOL) earlier in the week. tonight we made sure we were outside to see it.

we went out shortly after dusk and there she hung in the purple-blue evening sky, a bright disk swathed in orange sherbert. (orange sherbert is one of my favorite desserts, by the way.)

she was stunning. beautiful. breath-taking. exuberant. ethereal.
