Here is the moon on July 2, 2012 - almost full.

Monday, July 2, 2012 - Tomorrow the moon is full.  Here's the scoop:

July 3, 2012 - 2:52 p.m. EDT -- Full Buck Moon.  This full moon was so called because it occurs when the new antlers of buck deer push out from their foreheads in coatings of velvety fur.  It was also often called the Full Thunder Moon, thunderstorms being most frequent at this time. Sometimes this is also called the Full Hay Moon. Since the moon arrives at apogee less than 13 hours later, this will also be smallest full moon of 2012. In terms of apparent size, it will appear 12 percent smaller than the full moon of Jan. 10.

That's the story about the full moon.  Be careful out there because apparently, the full moon brings out the craziness in the crazy people.  later, djb
