Supermoon over Virginia, March 19, 2011 - ButterYum

My head is spinning from the crazy week we just had, but I'll be posting again soon.  In the meantime, did you see the "Supermoon"?  That's the term used for a rare phenomenon that occurs when a full moon is at its closest point to the earth.  The last time we had one was almost 20 years ago.

According to NASA, a Supermoon is 14 percent larger and 30 percent brighter than usual. The next Supermoon will occur in 2029.  See you in a few days.
