Happy Friday Night Everyone

The crescent moon with so much earthshine that you can see the whole moon. Venus is beneath, in radiant beauty.. look up if you are outside and it is clear out.



The photo below is without any enhancements



Well, it was a beautiful sight in the sky the past few clear nights... thus I ran outside with my tripod and set up my camera to catch a few shots before the big bank of cloud moved in to obliterate everything.
Now it is windier than ever out..either blowing something our way or taking it away forever.!
So sorry I haven't been up to blogging or facebooking for the whole week... seems like I am pooped every night by ten and have to hit the old bed. Jet lag and then I think that something I ate for lunch last Thursday, put my stomach off for the past week,as well.
Enough about me...how are you? Sonia is back from St. Lucia. Correna and Joe are back from their vacation to Peru and the Galapagoes Islands, and Corinne and Wayne are back from Mexico... Eva and Dave and Family are packed and ready to go to Florida on Tuesday,Deb and Ashley are in Grenada and Emil...is down in Vancouver for Aunti Vi's Celebration of life tomorrow at Terry's.
She was a way too young and too vibrant to pass away, and she will be missed by her two Sons, Terry and Scott, and their wives and little girls, as well as her sisters and her brother John and of course little Peter!... It is hard to lose a mom...she is the pillar of nearly everyone's family, and once she is gone, the family has to find the strength to pick up where she left off and try to keep everything in order, the way she would have liked. In just a few years the family of twelve has now shrunk to seven..
On a happier note...Happy Birthday to Corinne. Emil is there helping her and Wayne and kids to celebrate, tonight. I'm sorry I missed going, but work was calling me.
So it will be a quiet week-end around these parts.
In the meantime here is a funny video to cheer everyone up...
The Conga Line at the Buffet!

Sorry, not that I am telling you what to write but I think you may have forgotten to mention Vi's other brother, the little guy, Peter. Unless of course I have the families mixed up.

Thanks Lori..I guess I always think of Peter as a cousin almost,since he is younger than Emil!
