Nostalgic observation Pepper:

Frequently, during full moons, I would call my late father and ask him to look out the window at the full moon. I would then tell him we were looking at the same object at the same time, in real time, and no television.

He on the East coast. Me on the West. The moon? Well, it was in the middle, but 240,000 miles away, but it brought us a bit closer.
