During the Second Lebanon War here - was it two years ago already? - my son was stationed at the largest base in the North, and was in the thick of it all. Before the war broke out and there was not only no time to tend gardens but most of the base was bombed, he had started a garden. He asked me to buy him starter plants of mint, lemon verbena, and a few other herbs, and "appropriated" a patch of ground in the sun. He watered and tended, and would call me from the base to ask "what is eating the mint?", etc. After two years there, the herb garden had grown lush and healthy, and most of the base helped themselves. My son was vigilant about everybody treating the plants well and the garden became a fixture of the base. He mustered out after the war, but I hope sopmeone else had carried on the care of that little section of home and hearth. When asked why he did it, he said that it remeinded him of me, and that it made him feel good that he could do something that wasn't regulated, requistioned or responsible for someone else's bad day.

Susan, I would love to see your rose garden one day. I do hope you will have a time some year where you can have a bunch of GWers to your garden. I can think of nothing I would like better than to see your roses live and in person.

Don't Forget Your Peas!

I've always direct sown my peas in the garden mid to late May. They grow so fast they always have enough time to produce before the heat of the summer sets in. If you choose to ws, I'd plant in individual cups that can be spaced apart. My sis-in-law planted a flat of them early indoors last year and ended up with a tangled mess by the time she could plant them out. I think they literally grow inches a day. :)

Don't forget BLUE

Maybe that is why the blue interior of the hot tub seems to glow at night when the moon is out? It almost shows too much and for just sitting in the tub, I like moonless nights best. There is no light pollution where we live and the high altitude makes the atmosphere thinner, so even the light from the stars makes things glow a little. The moon makes everything quite bright. Violet shows up well too.

If you go to weatherchannel.com and type in your zipcode, you can see what time Moonrise is. I looked yesterday, 8:59 I'll be outside looking, although we're expecting partly cloudy skies tonight, darn it. Super Moons are very cool!

It won't be till later though that it reaches the closest point, according to the article on weatherchannel
"At 11:34 p.m., the moon will be about 221,802 miles from Earth. That's about 15,300 miles closer than average."

Here I thought that you were referring to a fairly weighty person shifting some of his clothing ...to lay bare some of himself.

After all the beautiful weather we've had this spring, of course there are dense clouds tonight. I'll be looking up anyway.

DS just saw it from his house. I'm waiting for it to come out from behind my neighbors tree.

Too much foilage to see it right now. Can only see it shining. Maybe later before I head to bed.

I saw it, but will be better able to see it closer to 11:30 PM when it will be higher in the sky.

My neighbors prolly think I am nuts now. LOL, just came back in from howling at the moon.

I had to walk across the street, to get a good look at it. To many trees between me and the moon in the back yard.

Sure is big, round, and bright.

Well, I know, it isn't 10:30 yet, but I am tired and turning in.

Good night all

It is full tonight and brighter but I can't really say it is bigger. Looks great though.

I was expecting it to be really big, like a Harvest Moon only bigger. It was awfully bright and pretty though.

It would look bigger at moonrise than higher in the sky - it appears the largest closest to the horizon.
