Oct 5

Last evening I saw the moon was so beautiful and bright.
So I took a walk to a near by pond and the moon was shining on the pond as I was facing east.
Then I turned and walked around the other side of the pond. The sun was setting
and the sun was shining on the pond that way.

First time in my life I saw such an event.
Facing east it was night with a dark sky and shining moon on the water.
Facing west it was lighter with the setting sun shining on the pond.

Ohio State was just getting ready to play.
Life is good.
