Day 244

Blue Moon:  The second full moon in a calendar month

Because we have more days in a month than in a lunar cycle, these days accumulate, and every two to three years, we end up with an 'extra' full moon.  Tonight was one of those nights.  We had a full moon on the 2nd, and now another one tonight. 

I know I shared a moon shot just last week, but this kind of thing won't happen again until July of 2015...so I just had to have this as my photo of the day!
