Not many places you can drive 150-200 miles in each of 3 directions and finally hit a town with more then 20000 people. Driving around northern Nebraska and Sourthern South Dakota is kinda that way. I love it ... big sky country; quiet, even silent in between the little towns, Lots of opportunities to go antiquing. Finally 150 miles down and back to get the right kind of cigarettes for my wife [Natural American Spirit]. Oh, and if we'd really been in search of say, a KMark, it wouldn't have taken all that much time and miles - and been less fun.

May you all have a chance to stop for a moment under a dark cloudless sky and ponder the wonder of the beauty of the starts.

Cheers,
