Used to work at a site out in the middle of nowhere - nearest town 80+ miles way.

Occasionally we would turn all the lights off. Couldn’t see your hand in front of your face. The best nights were cold and calm - everything stood out like a razor.

Sit outside with a drink and just look. I miss those nights.
