OT: What I Love Most About Living in the Exurbs

About 30 years ago, there I was laying on back one night and looking up at the sky in wonder and astonishment, looking up at, like, zillions more stars than I had ever seen.

Returning to life in Manhattan, obviously, seeing a single star was a rarity.

So there I am outside this morning, with the dog. The sky is moonless, dawn is approaching but stil well off. Looking up, I see a nice assortment of stars. Then looking longer, I start to see the hundreds, thousands not normally visible, like that night 30-odd years ago....
