Day 443

May 28, 2021. Sunset 8:22 PM. San Francisco, CA.

We live in the middle of a long block, and I happened to glance down to the end of the street between bell tolls. In the distance, I saw a person and a bouncing dog running up the hill. And then they were here. Just in time.

Day 439 Riley greets her fans

May 24, 2021. Sunset 8:20 PM. San Francisco, CA.

Riley greets her fans. Approaches the bell. And succeeds in performing "a double"! (that’s what we've come to call 2 rings for one push.) It's a heavy bell and quite an accomplishment- especially for such a short performer.

Don't miss seeing this rare heap of moon attributes if you can help it!
Coming Wednesday 5/25/21
Thanks, Caterina, for the heads up!!

FYI Super, Flower and Blood both refer to the moon—
SUPER A supermoon occurs when the Moon’s orbit is closest (perigee) to Earth at the same time the Moon is full
FLOWER The “Flower moon” is the first full moon in May
BLOOD A "blood moon" happens when the Earth’s moon is in a total lunar eclipse
