Pretty moon out tonight, if you need something to howl at.

I love how the moon looks when it’s low on the horizon. Unfortunately living in built up area, can’t see it this way. It’s a rare treat when I’ve been on holiday and had the opportunity for an uninterrupted view, and happen to get the timing right and remember to look at the sky. Urban living sure has it’s advantages, but the downside is loss of connection to nature.

The clear nights have been lovely if a little cold :)

Very cold. Gotta love old houses with no insulation 🙃

Did you know the gap between us and the moon, is roughly the size of 30 earths? That blew me away when I heard it.
