    When you get into a tight place and everything goes against
    you till it seems you could not hold on a minute longer,
    never give up then for that is just the place and time that
    the tide will turn.

    Re: OMG this was hovering over my house what is it

    Mystery solved.....

    According to The Old Farmer's Almanac....that was a Full Beaver Moon.

    But alas...a new mystery.....why is it called a full "Beaver" moon?

    Glad you asked Wes!
    Full Beaver Moon - November This was the time to set beaver traps before the swamps froze, to ensure a supply of warm winter furs. Another interpretation suggests that the name Full Beaver Moon comes from the fact that the beavers are now actively preparing for winter. It is sometimes also referred to as the Frosty Moon.
    So all you guys that dont have your beaver Traps set for winter....better get busy!

    My "trap" keeps coming up empty!

    I knew you'd have the answer Gypsy Mystery; couldn't find an explanation for the full moon names in the Almanac and hadn't gotten around to doing a search on line yet.

    Re: OMG this was hovering over my house what is it

    I am glad you cleared that up about the full beaver moon.
    because i had something completely different in mind on what a full moon beaver was.

    Now that you have cleared it up ill go wash my mouth out with soap.

    Re: OMG this was hovering over my house what is it

    Well this seems like a good place to ask: At weddings, swans are often found adorning the cake, as swans have one mate for life. But so do beavers, so why aren't they shown the same respects in these events?
