Anyone who knows me well, knows that I LOVE watching the night sky and especially the moon.
Since the sky was super clear tonight, I decided on a whim to hop in the care and try and catch the moon rising from a hilltop near my home. I was soooooo thrilled to see it just rising over the hill! It was a sight of grandness...a huge orange ball shining down on the valley below. Oh, I could have just watched it for hours.
I was able to get a few pictures, but had to cut the trip short due to a child (who demanded to come along) who was scared because we were standing in front of a 200 year old cemetery while the moon was rising...Bad mommy choice lolol.
I really hope that some of you got to see the fabulous moon tonight, if not here are a few pics to give you an idea of what I saw. These pictures in no way do the scene justice, but I hope you enjoy them anyway :)

The view behind us was also amazing |
These are beautiful photos! I missed the moon rise and there were clouds covering it later on. I noticed a ring around it on Thursday night. Snow on the way tonight. Happy Easter!
