woke up early, and for whatever reason, decided to look out the front window…

the moon was still up and shining brightly, and at the bottom of the bird feeders I spotted a bunny friend…

it was busy eating the seeds that had blown out of the feeders during all the strong winds over the last day or so…

I stood watching it for quite a while, before heading back to bed… it is very interesting to watch the way they move…

and I love that cute little white tail…

reorganized the chairs on the deck on Monday to face the sun…

then I brought out blankets for each one so we would be comfortable while we had our eyes to the sky…

everyone brought their eclipse glasses from October, when we saw nothing due to clouds…

coffee was ready, snacks were brought out and my friends arrived an hour early for our regular Monday gathering…

at first the clouds covered the activity but eventually we got to see some of the eclipse…

this was one of the two photos I took… I held the glasses over my iPhone’s lens and one of my friends pushed the button, lol…

it was fun to be together and enjoy this phenomenon…

another great experience with these wonderful women, one who was on FaceTime, lol…

the moon has been doing some odd things over the last while…

three days before the full moon the moonlight was amazing… it looked as though it was a full moon and this is very odd…

I’ve caught a few interesting photos over the last few days…

this was from the 5:30 on Tuesday morning, taken without my glasses on, lol……

this one was from 7:30 this morning…

the moon is so mesmerizing;-)…

I’ve been trying to note how long I am out in the hot tub each night, so I take a screenshot of the time as I leave the house and another once I come in…

tonight I made it out to the hot tub in time to watch the Space Station fly over… I haven’t seen it for quite a while…

this time, as it came over the house it was a bright light, but about halfway across the open space above me it started to dim and then it vanished…

it has done this before and I wonder if it is rotating a bit and then doesn’t have the sun shining on it…

it always makes me happy to see it, especially on such a beautiful evening…

at last the sun came out late yesterday afternoon…

instead of a nap, I decided to read in the beams of light… and when I went out for my hot tub, the full moon was visible, woohoo…

this morning the sun was out again and I was so excited that I took a few photos in the bedroom as I admired the sunshine on the bed…

that sunlight makes the flowers even more beautiful;-)…

I have spent as much time as possible in the light, even spent some time on the deck…

spent another night out on the deck;-)…

this time I brought up the air mattress, laid down a comforter to set it on, and filled it up;-)…

then up came more comforters and down came pillows from my bed…

had a good sleep but the top cover of the comforter was wet from the dew… and my glasses were completely fogged over…

last view of the moon before the entire process was repeated in reverse…

this morning I was treated to this lovely view of the sky and moon over the neighbour’s house…

when I get out of bed, the first thing I do is look outside and enjoy whatever I see… sometimes it is the sun coming up through the neighbourhood houses, sometimes a bunny, sometimes it is overcast… just yesterday I saw the first grackle of the season…

I enjoy starting the day intentionally by checking out the sky…

up early on Friday to put out the box of pass-me-along items…

had to go back upstairs and get the phone to take a few shots of the beautiful moon…

tried to use my Nikon, but the battery was dead, lol… it is now sitting on the counter getting charged… I think I’ve hit something that is keeping it on wifi all the time which is why the battery keeps dying… going to have to do a bit of research to fix that😳…

so, the moon isn’t quite as clear as I was hoping for, but it does show how beautiful the morning was;-)…

good start to the day;-)…

last night a friend called and suggested I check out the moon…

it was a sliver in the sky with a very bright Venus above it…

I dug out the tripod, which was deep in a closet, and headed to the front step… even though it was cold, I took a few minutes and got some good photos…

so happy to have received that call;-)…
