Blue New Year

Don't forget! This Thursday night is the Blue Moon (or Full Long Night Moon via space.com) -- or the second full moon in December.

Via Farmers' Almanac: The blue moon happens on average every 32 months. Last time we saw a full blue New Year’s Eve Moon was in 1990, and the next one after 2009 won’t be until 2028.

PS. The Farmers' Almanac is published in Lewiston, Maine which is about 20 miles from my house!

I remembered to go out & get a picture last night despite the COLD weather! I should be posting it soon (once I get through my Google Reader backlog!)
