No tricks, just a celestial treat. 🌕🎃
The Hunter’s Moon rises tonight, bringing a little extra glow to Halloween week! This full Moon gets its name from the time of year when hunters traditionally used the moonlight to track game and prepare for winter. Rising around sunset, the Moon will illuminate the night sky, weather permitting. Don’t forget to look up tonight!

On September 17, 1787, the Constitution as we know it was born.
George Washington’s commanding presence played an important role in achieving this outcome. During the spring and sweltering summer of 1787, he provided guidance for 55 state delegates who gathered in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to fiercely debate the future of the United States.
There was no blueprint for this monumental undertaking, but it ultimately produced one of the world's greatest political documents, the United States Constitution.
James Monroe summarized it best when, in a letter to Thomas Jefferson, wrote “Be assured, [Washington’s] influence carried the government.” Learn more about Washington's role: bit.ly/46ZJl7E

He's old now, on a walker with some teeth missing. But when he sang that song, the crowd roared, and well they should have. Good for him and good for them.

Ronald Reagan on the American people: "It's true; we are an easygoing people, slow to wrath, hesitant to see danger looming over every horizon. But it's also true that when the emotions of the American people are aroused, when their patriotism and their anger are triggered, there are no limits to their national valor nor their consuming passion to protect this nation's cherished tradition of freedom."
We Will Never Forget. 🇺🇸
