The moon, Helen and a horse

What a spectacular moon last evening. I watched it on/off for several hours. Full moons captivate me especially when they are so gigantic.

Early in the evening around 7PM it began to rise with a still light blue back round. It looked like a picture. Then later as I went back out to the garden.

Against the darkness it seemed to just hang there. The evening temperature was still in the 80s and I could have just sat out there all evening.
Thursday afternoon I started to tat Helen, also from Janet Williams snowflake book

 

I am using a soft teal color bead with this one. Would have had more done on it except I went out with Glenda and Don to an art festival where Glenda and I found some special items. I came home with this

Just had to have this neck piece and filigree horse pendant. We had a nice day walking around the Cave  Creek and Carefree area then had lunch before returning home to their house for Lemon Meringue pie and coffee. Wonderful day spent with these special people.
Today will be a little garden work and then return to my tatting and reading. The temps for the week are expected to be in the low 90s. Some plant protection and checking the irrigation  flow so all will be well out there. The pond needs some attention too. Right now however, the coffee has finished brewing and the aroma is calling me. Thank you for taking the time to stop by and thank you for your kind words and your friendship.
