And I Traveled Just A Few Steps, At Most, To See The World.

It’s funny.

I spend all of this time daydreaming about travel.  About where I would be if I could be anywhere other than here.

And then, out of nowhere, I discover this whole universe that’s been sitting outside my back door for the past 5 1/2 years, and I never even saw it.

Like literally.  It’s the Universe.

All it took was a couple of solo glasses of wine, a little bit feeling sorry for myself, a broken electric dog fence, and a chance look up.

The metaphor, this whole time, was in my own back yard.

Look up, my friends, instead of down.  Look up, or you might miss it.

It’s a perfectly clear night, but I can see maybe 3 stars, and they’re the really bright ones. I think there are just too many lights in the city to ever get skies like that. Great photos!

Yeah, that ambient light will ruin it! That’s the ONE good thing about living out in the boonies. Sometimes I can see the stars. :)

I feel like you just became the female version of Ferris Bueller with how you ended that.

Best. Compliment. Ever.

(at least, that’s how I’m going to take it.)
