A Moon is a Moon….
June full moon
Full moon was Tuesday, June 2 at 12:19 p.m. EDT (16:19 UTC). From across Earth, the full moon is shining now from around sunset to dawn.

Legacy Way: Pedestrians Walking Through A Traffic Tunnel in Brisbane …An One Time Opportunity!!!

The opportunity to snap selfies on a stroll through a Brisbane traffic tunnel was one more than 20,000 people were not willing to pass up this weekend.
The one time only offer to walk through the Legacy Way tunnel ahead of its opening to traffic sometime in June was jumped at by pedestrians eager to see how the $1.5 billion project came together.
The 4.6-kilometre tunnel will connect the Western Freeway at Toowong with the Inner City Bypass at Kelvin Grove.
It is the largest piece of infrastructure built by a local council anywhere in Australia.
Throughout Sunday, participants were bussed in from special locations around the city for the chance to walk through part or the full length of the westbound lanes of the tunnel.
They were also treated to music, food and drinks, a jumping castle and face painting.

Oxley resident Kelly Bentson and her daughters Willa, 6, and Sage, 4, were some of the first to enter the tunnel.
“We think it’s a very exciting thing to do because you’ll only ever be able to do it once,” she said.
“It’s a thing in history for my daughters to remember.
“I think I’ll be using the tunnel – there will be times when we use it. I’m a bit of an infrastructure nerd. I do work in the industry so I like to do these sorts of things.”
Jamboree Heights resident Michael Mann, who has been watching the project closely ever since the first sod was turned, was keen to see the final product.
“I wanted to look at the tunnel and get a bit of exercise. I’ve been keen to check out the design,” he said.
“The tunnel is on my route, I’ll probably be using it.”
Earlier this week it was announced a trip through the tunnel would cost $4.85, but will be discounted for the first year.

The first of more than 20,000 pedestrians who took to the Legacy Way tunnel on Sunday.

The Blonde Gambler…
|
A beautiful Swedish blonde walks into a Vegas casino and goes straight to the roulette table. She smiles to the two dealers and bets $20,000 on one spin.
“I hope you don’t mind,” she says in a dreamy voice, “but I feel much luckier naked…” and she peeled off all her clothes, staying completely naked. “Come on, baby, mommy needs a new set of clothes!”
![]() The roulette wheel stops on 13. “I won I WON!!!” Shouts the blonde and jumps in the air in excitement
She collects the winnings and her clothes, hugs the dealers and disappears.
The two dealers looked at each other in shock, until one of them pulled himself together and ask: “Did she bet on 13?”
“I don’t know,” said the other dealer. “I thought you were looking…“
Conclusions:
1. Not every gamble relies on luck.
2. Not all blondes are stupid.
3. But men – are always MEN!

What Our Kids Missing Today ….!!!
Nostalgia: Children Having a Grand Ol’ Time
Remember how children used to enjoy themselves before the invention of the Internet and the Smartphone? Before television had dozens of channels, playing cartoons 24/7? Nowadays, the computer becomes our children’s best friend, and sometimes they spend too much time on it. It’s always nice to reminisce about the time when we were young, and that to have fun, we would leave the house to see and explore the world. These 19 vintage photos from around the world depict a time where staying inside was a punishment.
