Today I’m thankful for clear, starry night skies. In Olympia, I had an okay view and Portland was a little rough because of the city. Here in Ohio, I have a really good view and a pretty dark neighborhood. Wherever I have lived, regardless of the city lights, I would find a way to see the big dipper and other key constellations. One of my favorite memories is laying on the beach of Lake Huron at night in August looking up at the meteor shower and stars. Some of the best skies were up in Mt. Rainier National Park, Bryce Canyon National Park, out in the middle of nowhere Nevada, the deserts of New Mexico, and up near the Boundary Waters in Minnesota.
When I was in Hawaii last year, we were able to have a guided star tour with super cool telescope! Here are some of those photos.
What are you thankful for today?
