I always notice the moon and stars when heading out to milk in the mornings. Beautiful. Sometimes the snow sparkles like diamonds too. Other times i am bundled up with hat and neck gaiter and wondering why i do this. lol

We're suppose to be overcast all week. So I'll probably miss it.

You never know, you may get a glimpse of it in the early morning. It will make the moon look much closer than normal.

the moon was beautiful yesterday morning and this morning. Very bright out, and of course the snow sparkles like diamonds.

Tonight's the night! Hopefully everyone will get a glimpse of the super moon tonight or in the early morning hours like Windy Pines always does!

We were heading out for an errand just as it was rising. Mama mia, it looked like the largest pizza pie I have ever seen. Thanks Dawn for your heads up on sky events.

So glad you could see it Nancy! Unfortunately we had heavy cloud cover here in the Chicago area and did not get a glimpse of our super moon. My Windy Pines cousin, Michele, sent me a beautiful picture of it as it rose over her farm in northwestern WI.
I'm hoping a lot of you were able to see the moon last night!

I have my fingers crossed that we will all get clear skies for the March 20th full moon!
