Hypnotic Standstill

I was driving home before and I couldn't help being captivated by the full moon as I sped towards it on 93. It was such an amazing sight that you just wanted to stare at it endlessly. Entranced by this gigantic golden orb and its glow, I almost drove off the highway. Apparently, this dramatic full moon is called a "lunar standstill" and I understand we're in the midst of a rare season of these that begins shortly after sunset each day. When I got off my exit, you could see this huge yellow circle right above Hancock street. It was quite a sight. What a nice ending to a gorgeous day.
