The Howling Moon.

The full moon of February is known as the snow moon to those in the north. However, it falls in the late summer down south, where myself and Gary Sparks watched this lovely apparition. As we watched the golden orb rise, the occasion took us both, and the residents of Westshore must have thought a ware-wolf was on the prowl... Howling at the full moon is a favourite pastime of Gary's and after joining him, I can understand why.

So, are we crazy...? No, just lunatics!
