The month of June's Full Moon's name is the Full Strawberry Moon. June's Full Strawberry Moon got its name because the Algonquin tribes knew it as a signal to gather ripening fruit.

So double goodness!

Just thought I'd post as I found this interesting-
And the Carolina boards are slow :-P

Foxy

 
P.S. My Texas move is postponed, most likely til February
So for all inquiries, NO I haven't moved yet.  

I may still have time to see the Biltmore Estate finally!

Firstly , as you probably know last night was the first summer solstice / strawberry moon since 1948.  
I watched it rise over right field at the Durham Bulls game last night. It was in full glory as the Bulls won in the 10th !

Beautiful!!! Thanks for the info. too. I was not familiar with the reason it was called the Strawberry Moon.
