The cold blackness of space rained down on Prospectors Mountain. The early fall night stilled by the moonless night. The stats burned deep set into the sky. Tall pines reach up to try touching them.
Two stars looked down and reached back. A steady vibration slide through the air as both glowing orbs landed to wake up the night.
“Tall pines reach up to try touching them.” What a great line. This struck me. Yesterday on a hike we saw a tree whose insides had been hollowed out by weather and time. It had to be at least a thousand years old, and still despite it’s broken insides, it still reached up towards the stars. Beautifully done.

Thank you very much. Those old trees are amazing to see how they can stand. They have personality and seem as if they reach or bend toward things.

Well it will happen one day. I just hope it is on your side of the world not mine! Let’s hope we treat them well when to do make contact.

I hope they are better culture than us. We have always exploited the less technology based civilization.
