Havest moon at Black Rock...
My first night out was at Black Rock Desert. I got on the playa at the same time the sun was setting and the moon was rising. The Harvest moon is the closest full moon to the autumnal equinox, for it to be within hours is very rare, an event that occurs once in about sixty years on average. This one occurred within hours if not minutes of the autumnal equinox,...very rare and very beautiful. Oddly enough it was not as spectacular or as beautiful as the full moon on the first night Jo and I discovered the playa at Black Rock. That was a magical experience to share with Jo. Knowing that she was seeing the same Harvest Moon that I was witness to was a second best but still good.
