Carmen and Emily started this blog to commemorate their long standing friendship. In February 2010 Emily joined the Navy and hasn't had reliable internet since. While Carmen wistfully awaits contact she has decided to only post pictures of the sky until Emily's return.
How appropriate. The next blue moon we will see in December will be 23 years from now. Well, that’s what I heard anyway. Some say that a Blue Moon is the second moon in a month. Others say that a Blue Moon is the forth moon in a season (3 months) and at least one person says that the drink above is a Blue Moon. What ever it is… i say happy new year and bottoms up!
I have heard the first – that the Blue Moon is the second full moon in a month. Hoooooweverrrrr…I just looked it up on Wikipedia, and it appears I was wrong. Wikipedia says it is the 13th full moon in a year, an explanation I like better because thirteen is a prophetic number on its own, so it makes the Blue Moon extra eerie.
Hmmmm, there’s actually a ton of really cool information on this article, so I’m going to do a post on it instead!
