Magical Moon!

Jackie Diprimo • Youngsville, NC

It was 1974 and I was 13. I was at Myrtle Beach with my family and we were walking down what was the old boardwalk. It was about twilight and I turned to walk onto the beach. Looking out over the ocean I saw the moon begin to rise. Soon, a huge orange ball was on the horizon of the Atlantic. It was the biggest and orangest moon I'd ever seen! Everyone around was just staring at it in awe. Later I found out that it was an optical illusion, but at that moment in time, it was my Magical Moon!
