My 4AM sky was extraordinary! Golden thumbnail moon over the Smith home and Orion and his army of a trillion brilliant stars over ours. The air was brisk, clean and barely cold. As yesterday’s post suggested, the absence of clear midnight morning skies only made me appreciate them more. Apparently, we were not alone in our fondness of the beauty, as the undeniable odor of a nearby skunk wafted through that air and offended our sense of smell to the point that we were forced back inside. Lesson here might be that it only takes one stinker, or bad apple, to ruin it for everyone!
