Rainy days and Sundays always get me down when I can not garden!

FULL SNOW MOON




I love how the full moon reflects off the creek in our backyard.  February's moon is called the "Snow Moon" due to the large amount of snow that falls during the month.  This made hunting difficult, so it was also known as the "Hunger Moon" or "Bone Moon".  (Due to the lack of food, Native Americans would eat and make soup from bones.)



"They danced by the light of the moon, the moon, the moon,
They danced by the light of the moon"
