Have you ever just laid down outside and stared at the stars?

Yep, about a bazillion times in my life. When I was a kid, my friends and I used to sleep "under the stars" all summer long.

Often!  We live out in the country, so the Milky Way is gorgeous!

Outside my window (second story) I could climb out on the roof and just enjoy. The city was far off so I could see plenty of stars. Very peaceful!

🍷I sit on my balcony sipping shine.

Yes. My best friend and I did that once when we were up in the mountains in Colorado. We both lay down next to each other and looked up at the stars, which were very easy to see there due to the lack of artificial lighting and the open mountain sky.

Yes absolutely! I love to look at the stars, nice warm night, some music, a beer and stargazing! What's not to like?!

Yes ... But then someone inevitably calls 911, and an emergency vehicle shows up to see if I had a heart attack and died in the middle of the road.  Why the caller doesn't check on me first, I don't understand.

(I'm surrounded by trees, so the only place to stargaze is in the middle of the road.  LOL)

There are no stars to stare at in these parts. Too much light polution.

All the time! I love appreciating our galaxy- it's truly an extraordinary thing.

Yes.

But I live in the Dallas, TX area.

So to see the Milky Way, I have to go about 200 miles west.
