Get outside and get some exercise.  Bike, run or walk the Lake Trail in Palm Beach. The Lake Trail travels from the south end of the Australian Docks at the Royal Palm Bridge at Southern Blvd and travels north, past the Flagler Memorial Bridge for several miles. It is a great walk, jog, or cycling trail.

The Lake Trail features a few spots for fishing as well as just sitting under a tree and reading a book. Admire the boats at the Australian Dock, they are from all over the world. The Lake Trail then crosses the bridge and travels behind the Society of The Four Arts. The Society of the Four Arts is a non-profit charity organization that was founded in 1936.

Not only is this Saturday Halloween, but a rare Blue Moon will light up the night’s sky. A blue moon does not always appear to be blue in the sky, but rather when it occurs.

As many know, a full moon usually occurs once a month and when 13 full moons occur in one year instead of the normal 12, that is considered to be a blue moon. There are two types of blue moons, a full moon can be considered blue when it is the second of two full moons in a month, or when it is the third of four full moons in a single season.

This October’s blue moon will not necessarily appear blue in the night sky to us, but it does not mean that it is not possible. According to research, a moon can appear blue in shade if the atmosphere is filled with smoke particles or dust

This weekend is not only Halloween, but also the weekend that we turn our clocks back one hour to end Daylight Savings. Daylight Savings time ends this Sunday, November 1st at 2 am when the clocks fall back an hour.

This means sunrise and sunset times will be one hour earlier starting Sunday morning. This also means that there will be an extra hour of sleep starting this Sunday. Most of America expect those in Hawaii, most of Arizona, and the US Territories follow Daylight Savings Time.

Many believe that Benjamin Franklin was the inventor of Daylight Savings time, though he only suggested it and noted that the people wake up an hour earlier to enjoy more daylight and conserve candle wax. But the idea did not catch on until World War I when Germany
