wolf moon

Full moon, the "Wolf" moon is tonight.

1/22/08
I realized the other day that there are two magical times in Vermont, in my opinion. The first is in late June when the fireflies are in full force. The second, believe it or not, is now with the appearance of the full moon in January, the "Wolf" moon. The light of the full moon on the snow makes it very bright. It is usually very cold and clear. The trees crack. The silence is deafening. I remember being out walking through the woods this time of year and looking up. It felt like I was at the bottom of the ocean looking up through large beds of kelp (trees actually) moving slowly with the currents. The "Wolf" moon is tonight!
