This is the night of the strawberry moon, so called by the Algonquin tribes because it is the best time to pick strawberries - not because of its color. The full moon of June is also know as the mini moon because the moon is at its highest height from earth during the year - its apogee. This is in contrast to the great super moons of last fall when the moon was at its perigee or closest to earth.
Another apogee occurred today in Washington during the Senate Intelligence Committee hearings.
The height of frenzy and excitement about former director of the FBI James Comey's testimony. There could not have been more media hype and anticipation. What I saw was the apogee of integrity. No matter what James Comey has done in past months regarding other issues, it was a balm to American society to see a man speak rationally, truthfully and with heart about the insidious corruption and lies which he faced in working for the current administration. He took great risk to his own reputation to speak truth to power and he's a hero for it.
