Waxing Gibbous Moon rose 2:15 PM today

2:15 PM this afternoon a waxing gibbous moon should have popped up just to the left of the Rockport breakwater in the photo. I got to chatting with some Brit geocachers at the end of the Pigeon Cove breakwater I was standing on and complained that my moon had not shown up. Maybe I screwed up the time change? Nope. Twenty minutes later it arrived out of barely visible haze. It’s directly even with the bow of the boat and about a boat length from the horizon. The color is all weird because I had to adjust the crap out of the saturation and temperature in iPhoto to even get it to show up.

I told the Brits when they were getting warmer on the geocache and they too found what they were looking for. I’ll try again closer to a full moon so the sun is not bleaching the moon out. Rubber Duck stayed home to finish off Fred Bodin’s pickled herring. I’m trying out a handfull of EJ’s Canadian Bacon leftover from the deviled eggs mixed with Beth’s chocolate covered pomegranate seeds. Wowiekaflowie that’s a tasty combo. Huge bennies throwing the Mug-Up today. Clean house and all the leftovers are mine mine mine.

    1. Yes, I’ve cached since May 2001 about a month after the first one was found. Tailed off a bit since then. The Brits told me of a cache they found practically next to my house so I had to log in today. It was great when the kids were small watching the smoke come out of their ears finding treasure in the woods. I still look up caches when travelling someplace weird. It’s a great way to find an out of the way spectacular view. The Brit told me there are more than a million caches now. That’s crazy.

  1. That is actually one of the perks and drawbacks of hosting Mug Ups. Too many leftovers and we begin to resemble the Pillsbury doughboy/girl. But Canadian bacon mixed with dark chocolate covered pomegranate seeds! Wowiekaflowie for sure.

  2. “Wowiekaflowie” now has google references but what no citation?!!! LOL I don’t think I actually invented it anyway. 🙂
