That's no fun!!! But I always ask for a trip for my birthday in September and for our anniversary in March in lieu of gifts. I'd rather have the memories than junk I won't use! So I know, while reading all these posts, that my beach trip is coming up. I'd be sad if I took my vacation in June and knew it was not coming again 'til next summer, so maybe fall is the best time to go!Stephanie Farishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10461865229341760836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948073544976029742.post-81161870191445488092014-08-12T21:33:55.509-04:002014-08-12T21:33:55.509-04:00We get the worst behaviors at school during the fu...We get the worst behaviors at school during the full moon from students and parents.

Staycation is just right for us up here on the lake. Your Supermoon looks much like ours did last night.. one night after. All hazy and lovely. But it shone brightly for us on the night it was 100% full.

I live among great photographers who compete with each other to capture every little nook and cranny and meteorological phenomenon, then share their pics on Facebook. One can get lazy this way!<br />Love how your grandchildren help around with canning beans. I could use a helping hand so many times...<br />Happy birthday to the cutest soccer player!Rosaria Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03133147851332084180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948073544976029742.post-35015272299276290302014-08-11T10:36:56.187-04:002014-08-11T10:36:56.187-04:00So much fun to see everyone's super moon pictu...So much fun to see everyone's super moon pictures. Yours is mysterious. I can remember a couple years ago when the super moon was just coming up over the horizon and it was REALLY big. I chased it down the street to get a picture but the cars honked me down. The trick with super moon pictures are getting it in context with something else. Otherwise, you can't tell how BIG it is.<br />Staycations are always a good thing. I enjoyed yours, Kathy :)rjerdeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12453912819445395042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948073544976029742.post-90815902651372851842014-08-11T09:24:06.243-04:002014-08-11T09:24:06.243-04:00That moon was big and I managed to restrain myself...That moon was big and I managed to restrain myself. Must be because i took a day off work to be at the lake to recharge my batteries. <br /><br />Good for you guys to do some ministering to the poor. Now those kids have a better chance of getting a good start in their school year.<br /><br />Happy belated birthday to Cameron. He's growing up fast.<br /><br />I would love to have a staycation. <br /><br />Hope that your week brings you lots of joy.<br />Hugs,<br />JBJuliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03423754263165266554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948073544976029742.post-17564456489956883572014-08-11T08:45:24.988-04:002014-08-11T08:45:24.988-04:00Hi, dear YaYa!

Soon, my dear friend, you will be telling us how those cold, snowy nights "keep the skeeters at bay." :) <br /><br />I admire you and Jack and all the others who volunteer their time to help the needy. Bless you all!<br /><br />That pic of Lexi warmed my heart. Picking beans and helping to prepare them for freezing or canning is an activity I remember from my own childhood. When it's so easy to toss a prepackaged meal into the microwave these days, it's encouraging to know there are kids who have the patience to do the good honest work of food preparation, same as generations past. <br /><br />Happy birthday, Cam! I also have a grandson named Cameron.<br /><br />I'm probably one of the few men in America that would rather watch the Super Moon than watch the Super Bowl. I used to be a football fanatic but Mrs. Shady "trained" me to think otherwise.<br /><br />If you run into my good buddy Eddy any time soon, please say hello for me and give him a pat and a biscuit. I know you must miss him and so do I. Have a wonderful week, dear friend YaYa!Shady Del Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03839935472941264414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948073544976029742.post-89692511235600268952014-08-11T08:14:03.916-04:002014-08-11T08:14:03.916-04:00Oh, yes.

The whole "full moon" thing really is true. Those few months I spent at the hospital with Mom proved it for me.

My sister in law the operating room nurse always said she hated call during the full moon so I do believe it is true.<br />We have been close to home too with company coming to us.<br />We did get to the Maine beach which is 1 hour away. We live in a resort area and tell ourselves people pay a lot of money to stay in our area.<br />Cathyacorn hollowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10503414190541111706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948073544976029742.post-43041004115402971522014-08-11T06:19:34.288-04:002014-08-11T06:19:34.288-04:00I was just mentioning to my husband the other nigh...I was just mentioning to my husband the other night about how weird the patients and visitors would get on full moon nights!!! It must have something to do with gravitational pull of the brain fluid or something! LOL It never failed though. Full moon equaled a nutty night at work!! ^_^ I was curious what a "super" moon would do to people!!

We've been staycationing (is that a word) for a few years; its fun to go away but it is also fun to stay around the house (plus we are kind of committed to not board Koda because of all of his health issues so its a good thing :)<br /><br />Nice ministry to be involved with in getting school supplies for those that need it :)<br /><br />We did get to see a bit of the super moon here, which was a good thing because normally the marine layer from the ocean would be coming in about the time the moon would be arising. It was gorgeous!<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.com
