I’m glad you have the opportunity to properly enjoy and appreciate the beautiful night sky.
Most of my friends are pretty clueless when it comes to astronomy. One of my friends thought the sun is the same size as the moon, and it speeds round earth every 24 hours!
I try to be there during the Perseids Meteor Shower. Haven’t made in the last few years.
There is a ranch I can visit and sit out in a lawn chair, listen to the coyotes sing, and watch the show.

All the Best,
Jeff
