“You need to conquer the moon before you can conquer Mars.” (Bud Gordon) This is a modern take on the old proverb: “One step, and then another…” BTW, during August the moon and Mars will show up in the sky at relatively the same size, if you can imagine that. No one living has ever seen this, nor will anyone living see it again. Don’t miss it! But you will miss WWs for a week. vacationtime. ;-) Jack
FROM P.O. IN MICHIGAN: Have a wonderful time! FROM JACK: Next Sunday I will attend a Polka Worship Service at the County Fair, where the liturgy and the hymns will be with polka music.
FROM DAZ IN COLORADO: I can hardly wait until August to see two big night sky objects. Will the nights be lighter outside? ......Are you sure about that same size story. WOW
FROM M.T. IN PENNSYLVANIA: Good morning, Jack. The Moon-Mars sighting information is based on a misunderstanding of something that happened in 2003. Here's the full story:

FROM JACK: Do you mean to tell me that there's no Santa Claus, too?

Is this a joke, Pastor Freed? Can Mars really be the same size as the moon in the sky?!!!!!!!!!!!!! I always seem to believe the WW words you communicate to us, as well as your enlightening comments but this one?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Actually right now I can't believe it but you can be sure I'll be standing in the yard each evening in August checking it out in my unbelief.
Best wishes to you and Mary for a pleasant and relaxing vacation.
S.H. in MI
Hope vacation is great--miss the WW's KB
