I didn't realize last nights moon was the Full Wolf Moon...I thought it was different then usual.

Wolf Moon is the name given by Native Americans to a full moon that occurs in January. Native Americans chose this name because they heard hungry wolf packs howl outside the villages. This full moon is also known as the Old Moon or the Moon After Yule. Full Moon names date back to Native Americans of what is now the northern and eastern United States. The tribes kept track of the seasons by giving distinctive names to each recurring full moon. Their names were applied to the entire month in which each occurred.

I'll throw in a sunrise from Saturday morning.
One of the beauties of living on a baron landscape are the skies.
