Every morning this week the crescent moon has been framed by my bedroom window. The silver sliver getting smaller with every new good morning. The waning crescent started the week still holding some of its fullness, but today, just a thin line waiting to become new again.
I don’t know when the moon will take this same path, maybe never. I was able to turn my head on the pillow and watch the moon rise everyday this week. Climbing over the top of the church and school to the east and move towards the curtain rod.
If I wait long enough I’ll see the sun follow. The sun takes a path well to the right of my window these days as it ascends more from the south each morning.
The late October summer temperatures hit me like Dick Butkus yesterday. I’m not built to go from a winter jacket on Wednesday to a Speedo on Saturday.
Thank you Mother Nature for the last taste of summer. I’ll take the appropriate weather back now.
No horrible football today… go get your pumpkins.
