The Stars!
As you have probably gathered from the reports of floods and mudslides, we have been under cloud cover for the past few days, until tonight. I had to get something out of my studio and happened to look up as I was unlocking the door.
It was like being in the mountains. I never realized that you could see so many stars in the Bay Area, even on a cloudless night. Little teeny stars that send light from far, far away were visible with a clarity that I only thought was possible at Lake Tahoe. I must make a note to get up to the mountains soon. It might just drive me back to the clutches of astronomy.
Meanwhile, please forgive these eyeglasses posts. I will eventually get used to it and will stop being blown away by every little thing. Until then, did I mention that I can read the spice bottles on the rack accross the kitchen?
