As this Sunday comes to an end, I just wanted to wish you a peaceful night and a wonderful start to the new week ahead. May you get plenty of rest, wake up refreshed, and have many reasons to smile tomorrow. Take care of yourself, and sweet dreams!
Does it Ever Actually Turn Blue? Yes, but only in extremely rare atmospheric conditions. Large volcanic
eruptions (like Krakatoa in 1883 or Mount Pinatubo in 1991) or massive
forest fires can send ash and smoke particles of a very specific size
into the air. These particles scatter red light and allow blue light to pass through, giving the moon a blue-green tint. The
saying "once in a blue moon" means something happens very infrequently,
which perfectly describes how seldom the moon physically appears blue
or how rare an extra lunar cycle is. Dear Tom, Have A Good Night Under The Blue Moon Light Pleasant Dreams Darlin' Always Loves And Hugs, XXOO ~WW~ {Sue}

Hi, Myriam! At around 2:15pm today a tremendous BOOM sounded and my house shook with a "thud." I wondered if a tree had fallen on the roof. Learned later that much of eastern Massachusetts experienced the same. It was ultimately explained that a meteorite had entered the atmosphere and exploded. The enormous shock wave created the noise and disturbance! Wow!
