Bill -- Long time. Stumbled across one of your posts over on PC's new thread, took a look at your posting history (wondered where you'd gone) and followed you over to this interesting thread.

Based on my observations made while hiking around out in the moonlight last night, it appears as if the upcoming full moon will be rising in the constellation Cancer...home of the Moon Child (of which I are one).

In the center (or just off center) of Cancer is a cluster of stars and stuff which astronomers have labled M44. Its older, Greek, name is Praesepe which translate as...

What's the biggie here? Not much, expepct to me (a Moon Child) who happens to live on a topographically enchanced geographic object(hill) known (and labled as such on maps)as...

The Beehive.

We got the land (40 acres) for free as the result of an interesting convolution of occurances all somewhat strangely tied together by a series of low probability events.

I have a closing in GJ on the 22nd in the late afternoon, but hope to make it home in time to climb to the top of the Beehive for the Moon Rise and then head up to the Grand Mesa for some skiing late into the night. As you well know, the clarity of the night winter sky at that elevation is something to behold. Combine that with crusing through the woods and meadows with a group of friends and it can become quite the mind expanding experience.

T'is a pleasure and a wonder to live in Western Colorado!
