The sun and the moon...


Finally, the sun is shining. It feels as though we haven't seen it for months rather than weeks. The trees are still changing color and not too many actually lost their leaves during all that wind this past weekend.

It's also a full moon today. I watched it set early this morning. The full moon this month is called:

Full Hunter's Moon - October With the leaves falling and the deer fattened, it is time to hunt. Since the fields have been reaped, hunters can easily see fox and the animals which have come out to glean.

The full moon has a different name as it occurs in each month. You can go to the Farmer's Almanac site for a nice description of the folklore.
