This Full Moon

45°f/7.2°C, a few clouds, but clearing.



Hunter's Moon

How can I sleep
when the night is lit 
with your shining,
quicksilvered trees,
glistening grass, even
the wild deer gilded
before they flee?

Downside: I can't sleep when the moon is full.
Upside: sometimes I write, in my head, and sometimes I remember to put it on paper in the morning.

A full moon can be blamed for many strange human behaviors (ask any hospital emergency room worker!) For example, here's a few things that have happened/are happening in West Virginia this month:

There's slackliners, who have tried for years for a photo like this at Seneca Rocks, West Virginia:


If you Google Seneca Rocks Moon Walk 2026 you can find many more photos by this group.

This is the first time I had heard of slacklining. People do the most amazing things for fun.

But West Virginia is also known for catapulting people off a very high bridge. Can't blame this one on the moon!

And of course, our famous Pumpkin House.

Anything odd happening where you are?
