The Strawberry Moon

The sky is vast, endless...and forever changing.
I have always been fascinated about the mystery of the sky.
The Sun, the Moon, the Planets, Shooting Stars, and the Constellations.
I am drawn to Natural Phenomenons like Rain, Clouds, Snow, Meteor Showers, Shooting Stars,
Rainbows, Auroras and Asteroids,
Not to mention Hurricanes and Tornadoes and a "good storm".
Whenever "the people" announce a Phenomenon is coming, I  write down all details, and if
 I don't fall asleep, I get to see it.


I took this picture on June 10th, at about 10 pm.
apparently it could be seen on the 10th and the 11th.
Much to my surprise the moon was pink.
The Strawberry moon is rare, we have not seen one since 2006.

Strawberry Moon
is a nickname that has been given to the first full moon in June.
I hope you got to see it, it was magical.

We saw a harvest Moon once...it was soooo yellow/orange

- The Hydrangeas are blooming and each of the 8 shrubs are abundant with flowers.
I have every color you could ever imagine, coming from the endless summer,
They are doing well...now the watering begins.

  3. We did see It on June 10 coming home from the airport. My husband mentioned how beautiful the moon looked on our ride home. For some reason my hydrangea bush ( which had hundreds of blooms las year) is void this year!! Just leaves, no flowers. Yours are gorgeous.

  6. I did not hear that we were to have a strawberry moon, when I was going to bed that night and closing the blinds I told Greg wow look at that moon it is red, now I wish I would have taken the time to get a picture. I heard later that it wasn't going to come around for like 20 years, I probably won't be around to see it. Your flowers are just gorgwous, love all the colors!

  9. I swear that's the best hydrangea bouquet I've ever seen and it is one of my favorite of all time flowers. ... I'm glad you share the fantastic strawberry moon... it was too cloudy here this year.
