🍁🍁🍁 Quieter... 🍁🍁🍁

At last, things have quieted down.

Last weekend, was the Wedding of our First Grand Daughter, to her True Love.

It was simply Perfect!!!!

Sorry to not yet be able to post pictures, but I will.

My old computer does not access such, easily.

But I will manage.  😊

🍁🍁🍁

We have had days and nights of cooler weather.  But right on time...  With school starting...  The sunny 80's,  are back.  😊  Skies have cleared for The Full Harvest Moon on this Saturday.  It is already an amazing sight, in the night sky.

🍁🍁🍁

I hope you are happy to be arriving at another Autumn.

I am...

🎄🌕Happy Full Cold Moon🎄Happy Winter Solstice/Yule🌞🎄

We are now experiencing the December 2021 "Full Cold Moon."    (December’s full Moon is most commonly known as the Cold Moon—a Mohawk name that conveys the frigid conditions of this time of year, when cold weather truly begins to grip us. ~ Source)

(My Icon)

And since the Winter Solstice/Yule will be on Dec. 21st, this Full Cold Moon nearly coincides with 'The Eve of Yule' on Dec. 20th.   Which I think is pretty neat!   😊

I like to celebrate Solstices and the other Turning Points of the Year.

"Why do we celebrate the winter solstice?"

"The hushed darkness of winter is at its deepest on the solstice, yet for thousands of years it has been celebrated as a promise of the brighter days ahead. The winter solstice is a tipping point, a moment of stillness when the balance of the seasonal scales will once again begin to tilt towards the light. Since long, long ago humans have been aware of this tipping point and celebrated the long night as a marker of new life and warmth returning." ~Source

I know, most everyone is busy....    But if you have a couple of minutes, this link takes you to some quiet (short) reading, concerning this lovely time of year.   -smile-   A bit of a respite, in the midst of all the Christmas Hoop-La.   -smile-

Wishing you a lovely Full Cold Moon, and a restful Winter Solstice/Yule.

 Blogging seems a wee bit slowed down.   Some are taking blogging breaks.   Etc.    Which is usual in summer.   People usually tend to be out more, with less time devoted to being on the Net.     Even more so, this summer, when we have been "Let Out Of Pandemic Jail."   At least, for a while.

But let's face it.   "The Powers That Be" are ready to lock us down again.   They have become addicted to the Power to do so.   Some already have.   New Zealand has 1 Delta case, and is in total lock down!  Read about it here... ...

How many things, were you looking forward to doing, in this summer of "Out Of Jail"?   Have you done them?     Let's get going!!!!   The summer is almost over.    Season-wise and Freedom-wise.   -wry smile-

Have you been able to see the moon?  It has been waxing!  😊   And the Full Moon is nearly here!  Hope we can see it!  Would really love to be able to see it, over the ocean or a body of water.    Guess I'll have to be content with its reflection, in the ripples of our pool.  😉

Gray hairs seem to my fancy like the soft light of the moon, silvering over the evening of life.

See those vines...  Creeping over to the left....   In high summer, it seems as if, if one sat too long in one place, vines would come and cover one.  -grin-

Speaking of doing the washing, as I was yesterday, what I usually do is........  Put a wash in, near bed time.   Our bedroom is right next to the bathroom/laundry, so we could hear, if anything went wrong.    Then, first thing when I get up, I put it in the dryer.    And it is all done, early in the day.   -smile-  Somehow, it feels as if, I have gotten an early start, on the day.   🔆✨🌄✨🎵🔆

This is not my photo!   The Source is listed above.   Anyway, last night we noticed that the waxing moon looked Orange.   🍊  Which never happens.  

🍊 🍊 🍊   

My husband wondered if it was from the fires, way out West.    Could their effect, have traveled all the way across the country?  

🍊 🍊 🍊  

Our prevailing winds travel from west to east.    

🍊 🍊 🍊  

This morning, there is an Air Quality Alert.   Sooooo, something is making our atmosphere 'messy'.   Very, very rarely do we get an Air Quality Alert, up here in the North Country.

🍊 🍊 🍊 

YES!   It is smoke from the fires!

Have you happened to notice the waxing moon, where you live?  Does it possibly look Orange ?
