That is totally awesome, @Buzz! She's 91 years young and sounds like my grandma used to be! She was a Jimmy Buffet fan and loved Margaritaville.

I was watching my local news earlier and found out Hasbro visited Baton Rouge. They're asking for ideas for their new board game, Baton Rouge edition. I found this on YouTube about it. I'll probably buy one! :lol:

My apologies for not posting about it last night. I had seen on my local news the other day about the strawberry moon. It was explained that the strawberry moon (full moon) would appear the day after the summer solstice begins. This won't happen again for another 18.6 years.

By chance, I actually saw it last night and it was beautiful. It started getting dark close to around 9 p.m. (central) here. I had forgotten about it at first, and then I remembered. I first looked through my double wide kitchen window and didn't see anything, but I was also in my wheelchair. So the next thing I did was to open the door under the carport and looked through the glass screen door.

I nearly fainted! It was big and did look strawberry in color with just a hint of orange in it. It was in the southeastern sky and low in the sky. This made up for me not being able to go outside and watch when we had the total solar eclipse.

The strawberry moon can also be seen tonight and tomorrow night.

No, it won't look like a giant strawberry in the sky, but for moon gazers, this event will be quite unique.

I checked my local listings for the Miss Texas Pageant and it's showing that it will air tonight on my local KPXJ channel 21 (The CW) tonight from 8 - 10 p.m. central. Now I'm not sure that it's the same as the Miss Texas USA pageant because the description underneath video showed that the competition has already occurred. Maybe tonight is when it's just scheduled to air on TV.

I received a NASA email earlier with a YouTube video link attached. NASA has used the Hubble and James Web telescopes to make a 3D visualization of the Pillars of Creation Star that was made famous by the Hubble telescope in 1995. It is amazing!

Just posting that I'm watching the Miss Texas Pageant. It is on your local The CW channel. :cheer2:

Okay, I'm just posting because it isn't the Miss Texas USA Pageant I'm watching. The Miss Texas Pageant will determine who goes on to compete in the Miss America Pageant. It also includes the talent competition!

Thanks, @skatingguy! If that doesn't get you in a good mood, nothing will! Love it.
