    Last night, this morning and this evening are supposed to be the Moon's closest orbits for the year. Didn't get any photos this morning, and this afternoon we are overcast. Bummer.

    With my job, I can always tell when it's a full moon, I don't even have to look in the sky. The crazies all come out:)

    Saw it through my Skyview app, looked cool with other planets and space debris. If you don't have Skyview ? It's a free app you can download on your smartphone. (Did I say it's free). You can view the stars through your walls of your house. Ya I would say the moon was bright a big last night.
