Brilliant stars

I woke this morning at 4 and the stars were so brilliant I took a mug of tea outside to enjoy the spectacle. We have such wide open views and I love to think that 200 years ago someone was probably here, standing outside Hill Farm doing exactly the same thing. As dawn came the moon moved higher into the sky, it's late arrival meant that I could see so many stars beyond the constellations that I could identify: the Plough shone right above the house with Orion stretching down across the garden. A magical, private start to my day.
