Sanpete Skies

The night sky looks so different when you get away from the city.  Gunnison has been a great place to live for just that reason.  At night the stars are incredible from our house.  The sunsets are to die for as well.  The other night we were driving and had our breath taken away by the sight of the moon.  It was enormous and surrounded by an eerie green and golden glowing ring.  bisecting the sight was a dark jet contrail.  The picture does it no justice, but I wanted to share nonetheless.  The sky holds some pretty impressive things.

I remember reading the national geographic once and it had an article on electricity. There was a satellite picture of the united states at night. All of the country was all lit up except one little place, San rafeal area where it's only an hour from us. It is an awesome picture and we should be grateful that we are not lit up and see the skies.

Looking up the sky at the San rafeal swell area is one of the most amazing things to see in life. Also, did I mention skyline drive in sanpete county? Very awesome, I love the full moon tonight, I did went on a drive up the canyon tonight. So bright everywhere and isolated.
