The moon is lovely tonight.  The official full moon isn't until Saturday, but tonight's version is bright and wonderful.

From almanac.com for this "Sturgeon Full Moon" on 8/29:  "Some Native American tribes called the August Moon the "Sturgeon Moon" because they knew that the sturgeon of the Great Lakes and Lake Champlain were most readily caught during this full Moon."  

"Pretty Moon, Your face I see

Just above the garden tree."

The smoke from Washington/Oregon fires is making the moon I am looking at not so pretty.

I pulled the shade down in my southeast window two nights ago and saw the moon - looked pretty full then.  I'll make it point to more check it out tomorrow night.

Truly amazing how the full moon lights up the night sky.
