Welcome to Moonlight Court--so named because of my interest in the color and whimsy of Marie Antoinette's court, as well as my propensity to keep my blog up to date by the light of the moon. Please enjoy my musings on Inspiration, Art, Music, Movies, and Creative Living, etc.
Please also enjoy my favorite hobby--American Revolutionary War reenacting, and the many photos that I have taken. If you are interested in using a photo for personal or commercial purposes, please email me at "revwarphotos" on my gmail account. Thanks!
