I have a good little spot for watching the moon come over the horizon it can be truly breathtaking

It says we will be in daylight when it rises, assuming that is we see it at all given the cloud

"The moon's distance to Earth only varies about 50,000 miles at any point in the year, but it's still a good time for an excuse to stare upwards". What a great sentence! Even if I don't get to see the moon on Sunday, that
sentence will compensate adequately.................The pleasures to be derived from small things, eh?

Yeah I spend a fair few hours admiring the moon at the best of times so it just gives me a reason to moonwatch
Weather not looking optimum to say the least

I shall wait for the wolf to howl on my ipad moon app and then go out and try and find it
