Blue Moon over Hampstead NH
Jay took this shot last night in our driveway. A blue moon while not rare is not something we see often and while tonight is technically the Full Moon and yes it is a Blue Full Moon it looks like the clouds will cover it.
This is the second full moon in December and according to InfoPlease.com a Blue Moon is ….
What is a Blue Moon?
There are in fact two definitions for a blue moon. According to the more recent definition, a blue moon is the second full moon in a calendar month. For a blue moon to occur, the first of the full moons must appear at or near the beginning of the month so that the second will fall within the same month (the average span between two moons is 29.5 days).
What ever you do tonight stay safe and enjoy your New Years along with the Blue Moon!
Best Wishes in Twenty Ten
Jay and Monika
Nicely done – I did not brave the camera this year – you both look great – Happy New Year
Thank you Thesa and Happy New Year to you!
