Standing on water, watching the Pink Super Moon rise, a guy jamming on a Flutophone while sky watchers flit around in their bank robber chic attire… yes, it was an epic night.

Read More Super Worm Equinox Purim MoonToday on January 1st, 2018, we were blessed with one of the most beautiful full moons I’ve ever seen.
