**Off Topic** astronomy

Nice Jim....Very Very Nice

If the moon and planets travel around us....then the earth must be
in orbit along with the sun as a solar system moving anound some other
(seemingly) fixed point in space. I wonder how far we are from the point
our solar system started its journey..?
We now know that other planets are out there doing the same 2 step.

There is a wonderful image of a butterfly resting on the bark of
a Sequoia tree....both are living and moving and knows the other is
there, but the experience of time is totally different for each one.
But at the same time exactly the same.

I have spent some weeks in the south west and also spent many nights on
the tops of mountains just looking at the vastness of those stars.
Indiscernible and Indescribable

I could not add anything else in describing the experience,
nor was it probably as rich as yours.

The Poets have called it "Pure Joy"

I think you were fortunate....very fortunate
Chip
