What do you think when you see a full moon?

[Sinsemilla]

i think, wow thats pretty bright.

and its helpful if your trying to spark up, at night, and dont have too much light to work with.

We always used to take vacations around the September full moons before Bird was back in school and go down to her grandparents' summer place in the Gulfport-Biloxi area. That whole area was wiped off the face of the earth by Katrina two years ago. When it was the way it used to be, though, it was so nice to go out fishing on the Mississippi Sound at night when the fish were jumping and biting. You could sit on the deck of a boat or even on a pier and throw out a line. A fish would practically jump up and take the hook before it hit the water.

I am sure you are talking about the Gulf of Mexico..I used to live in Florida and went fishing many times growing up and the fishing is just outstanding..great variety and abundance.

So is her grandparents place still there? or did it get wiped out?

I used to work at a convalescent hospital, and I agree with Dr. Byrd. People just go goofy! Crazy, goofy!
My sister works in the emergency room of a hospital, and she'll swear more babies are born on a full moon.
I really like full moons though. Very awesome to gaze at.

Yeah, the Mississippi Sound is part of the Gulf of Mexico. It's the coastal stretch from east Louisiana to Mobile that's separated from the larger Gulf by a long stretch of barrier islands.

That house got wiped away in the hurricane. Her dad sold her grandparents' house about three years ago, a year or so before the storm, because her grandparents were both gone by then and upkeep wasn't practical from Texas. When Pop and Nana were alive, they were a lot closer in Louisiana, but they'd been too old and frail to enjoy it for the last couple of years before Pop passed away in 2001. We younger ones all still went there at least twice a year though, and could always find people who wanted to rent it out the rest of the time. It was this great, big old, waterfront house with a wraparound porch that they'd had since Bird's dad was a small kid in the late 30s or so. Wonderful low-hanging oak trees and a great shady lawn. Heartbreaking that it's all just a memory now. Those lots where those oceanfront places were washed away are now selling for redevelopment for about 500K to 800K just for that empty land.

Indeed. I'll see you on the dark side of the moon! Doobies for everyone that makes it!

When I see a full moon, I look at the planets in the sky, think of the sun reflecting off of them, and, then feel the arms of our celestial sisters as we revolve.

edit: It was awesome. At 6, this morning, on my way back, I saw the moon right above the road. It's close to the Earth.
