If you get up early on Christmas morning, don’t open your presents, or shake that box right away. Head towards the window and glance west at the sky. There over the horizon you’ll see the last full Moon of 2015.
The last time that full Moon happened on December 25th was 1977. Disco was all the rage and “Saturday Night Fever” starring John Travolta, premiered in NYC. So yeah, a long time ago…
I’m guessing with the full Moon to light the way, Rudolf might get a bit of a rest this year. 🙂
