Blue Moon....there's a song that keeps going through my mind...a very old song...called Blue Moon...but in fact, the blue moon is not really blue. I'm not sure exactly why it's called blue, but the second full moon in a month is called the blue moon. There are usually 12 full moons in a calendar year, but every 17 years (I think that's right - or maybe I'm thinking about cicadas) there are actually 13 full moons...and people behave even weirder than usual. We didn't get to see the blue moon tonight since it rained most of the way through Illinois and now we're too tired to look outside. Hope you are able to see the blue moon this week.
