Bright Night

A beautiful night, the full moon (Sturgeon Moon) is at perigee and is as bright as it comes. I took a motorcycle ride up Rte. 47 under bright moonlit clouds. The warm weather is keeping this roadside ice cream stand in business, they were just closing up when I went by.

Stopping in at Northampton for a coffee, this barefooted banjo/ fiddle/ guitar group was further proof of the warm weather.

We won't be able to see it as well here in the east, but folks on the west coast will be able to see an eclipse of the moon tommorrow, early morning just before the sun comes up. This graphic from Sky & Telescope magazine:
