What about the "Blue Moons" which occur from time to time?? I had never
thought of that, but the second full moon in a month should have SOME name.
Maybe "Blue"??
Clear, Dark, Steady Skies!

So would that make the second full moon in April a blue pink moon? )

I certainly hope you aren't going to post every fact you stumble
across.

Conduct yourself accordingly.
