AH! Brilliant stars in the nighttime sky. That’s what I want. Here in the Blue Ridge Mountains of central Virginia I’ve got nighttime skies that are way better than Arlington, Virginia, but it is certainly nothing to write home about.

Vacation has called me to Sapello, New Mexicoo. I’ve been there two or three times and I’ve been blown away. This is what dark skies are about.

Brilliant stars in a dark sky. There is nothing better.
