Dougie has always had a special relationship with Grammie & Pop - and the moon. When he could barely talk, he would ask about the moon on a nightly basis. Pop always had the patience to take Dougie outside to check out the night sky. Full moons brought out the werewolves... Dougie would howl with glee!
The full moon came to be known as a
Dougie Moon
Tonight was one of those nights. The moon was HUGE and ORANGE. Last night was the actual, full, Harvest Moon. We, however, could not see it thanks to
Typhoon Jelawat... Thankfully, the typhoon did not blow our Harvest Moon out of the sky! And, it made for an amazingly beautiful day - and evening/night.
Dougie was
ecstatic! He insisted I take a picture (was going to anyway) to send to Pop.
As we "looked" for the moon, we lost it. It was rising behind Monkey Island (Sarushima) and was momentarily "missing"...
And then we found it behind the boats.
Pop, Dougie is counting: only 2 full moons and 24 days until you can take him out to see a
Dougie Moon
TOGETHER!
