We got to the lakeside on time...
Unfortunately, so did low-lying clouds. We saw a little pink to the east, that was either moonlight or sunlight on the clouds, though the camera didn't pick up the pink tones well:
While we were waiting, hoping that the cloud cover wasn't too thick to see the big, orange harvest moon on the horizon, we did a brier celebration of the season. And took a few pictures:
It got darker and darker. Finally, our first glimpse of the moon:
And then I took a bunch more pictures of the moon:
And finally, the moon disappeared completely behind more clouds and we headed home. It was out of the clouds again as we walked into our house.
So, no huge orange harvest moon for us, but it was beautiful anyway.
Now I've got some chores to do, so I'd better hit post and do them.
