		Search results take a few seconds and open in a new window. May need to allow Pop Ups to see results.

All our holidays are validated with sponsors or organizations.
We do not have holidays for every single day of the year. Sites that do, IMHO are making days up. Beware!
Also, some observances that are validated through website links, can't be updated until their websites update their 2008 information.

Visiting us is free! Our Holiday information is free. We have always paid all costs and remained ad free as well.

December 08 Moon Phases	5 First Qtr. 4:26 pm EST	12 Full Moon 11:37 am EST
	19 Last Qtr. 5: 29 am EST	27 New Moon. 7:22 am EST

Full Moon on the 12th is called "Cold Moon" by Native Americans of New England and the Great Lakes because at this time of the year the nights are long, the days are short and so less sunlight means more cold days.
