RE: Happy Solar New Year

in #ungrip7 years ago

Living away from the city has been a blessing. The sky is so wonderous and when I lived in the city I missed it for years. I grew up on the farm and love watching the stars. Over the last ten years I have returned to watching them. I even downloaded and run the program Stellarium to help me learn more about what is beyond my physical grasp. <3 This time of year especially as it is dark here about 4pm, which gives me LOTS of viewing time. In the summer it does not even get dark enough to gaze and I have to be awake at 2am to get the darkest viewing. Lovely time of year. Fall and Winter are my most favorite times of the year.

I am so very blessed to be living on a mountain top and the view of the night sky can keep me up all night sometimes. I may have to look into getting Stellarium, would love to know what some of those wonders are up there. I may have been a bear in a past life LOL, I love snuggling in and hibernating to some degree in the winters here. Plus I REALLY don't like shoveling snow.
