Moon

Go outside and take a look at it.
I believe it is now the closest it gets to Earth.
Darn thing is HUGE!!!
Planning on taking my telescope out tonight if the darn mosquitoes promise to leave me alone.

Our mosquitoes are covered with ice. Doesn't keep them from biting though.

My wife mentioned how big the moon was when we pulled in the driveway a bit ago. It's really quite beautiful. Has some clouds drifting around it and a nice halo.

Hopefully I will join you for a big moon very soon, Carlos.

Actually, that day was Dec. 12th (perigee), when it was closest to earth. Still a big moon tonight.

Yes, I like being a know-it-all
