: Sylectra Darwin: And you?

: Tess Aristocrat: same...haha

: Tess Aristocrat: contemplative

: Sylectra Darwin: smiles

: Sylectra Darwin: a lovely peaceful night outside, full of stars and a hazy moon

: Ewan Bonham: Sylectra, where are you located?

: Tess Aristocrat: full moon in a couple of days to come...

: Sylectra Darwin: I'm in New Jersey, within  minutes drive of New York City.

: Sylectra Darwin: I wondered whether full moon had already come and I didn't notice.

: Tess Aristocrat: smiles..

: Ewan Bonham: I have been to that area many times..:)

: Sylectra Darwin: It's often hard to see the sky here

: Sylectra Darwin: The lights, the trees...

: Sylectra Darwin: But I am always glad to see the stars when I can.

: Ewan Bonham: Can you see them better when you travel south?

: Tess Aristocrat: There has been some talk of re-doing this area

: Tess Aristocrat: Were you asking to Sylectra?
 

: Ewan Bonham: Oh, I was commenting that if you go away from the city, you can see the stars better..

: Tess Aristocrat: nods

: Sylectra Darwin: New mexico and Arizona have the biggest brightest night skies

: Ewan Bonham: Tess, what area are you from?

: Sylectra Darwin: but there are places in Texas where you can get away from the lights

: Tess Aristocrat: I live out in the country where it is quite dark

: Tess Aristocrat: in East Texas

: Ewan Bonham: I am on the coast of Fla.

: Tess Aristocrat: nice
 

: Ewan Bonham: And yes, beautiful stary nights..
 

: Sylectra Darwin: Nice for both of you

: Tess Aristocrat: inner or outer coust?

: Tess Aristocrat: coast*

: Ewan Bonham: West coast..

: Sylectra Darwin: I've never been to that side of Florida, Ewan.

: Tess Aristocrat: I have a brother that lives in Palm Coast

: Ewan Bonham: Less crowded than the Atlantic..

: Tess Aristocrat: beautiful

: Tess Aristocrat: you have some pine trees there that are like the ones we have here

: Tess Aristocrat: Where I am is in the nat'l forest area

: Ewan Bonham: pines? Ours tend to be thin and fragile compared to those up north..:)

: Tess Aristocrat: How far down the coast are you?

: Ewan Bonham: I am a bit north of naples...Fort Myers..

: Tess Aristocrat: I think there was some sort of Fort close to where my brother lives..San Augustine or something?

: Ewan Bonham: Hmm...we are close to the Everglades..

: Tess Aristocrat: I bet that is beautiful

: Tess Aristocrat: It would be neat to go down there and explore

: Ewan Bonham: Yes, especially in the winter..

: Ewan Bonham: Fewer bugs...and perfect weather..

: Sylectra Darwin: agreed

: Sylectra Darwin: Winter in Florida is the best

: Ewan Bonham: Often we will need to wear a jacket..:)

: Tess Aristocrat: I went down to Jamaica once in January..that was really nice

: Tess Aristocrat: Had to overcome the idea in my mind that it was too cold to swim, because it wasn't!

: Ewan Bonham: Yes, you can swim down here...just a bit cool..

: Tess Aristocrat: nods :)

: Sylectra Darwin: Ewan do you swim at the beach in January?

: Ewan Bonham: Yes, i do..

: Ewan Bonham: It is shallow, and it is the Gulf side..

: Sylectra Darwin: Is it chilly?

: Ewan Bonham: So, it is a bit warmer..

: Sylectra Darwin: I visited my grandmother a lot during the Christmas holidays when she was alive but don't recall if I swam at those times

: Tess Aristocrat: We share the same Gulf :)

: Tess Aristocrat: it's about a two and a half hour drive from here, though :)

: Ewan Bonham: Tess, are you in one of the other Gulf states?

: Tess Aristocrat: Texas

: Tess Aristocrat: I'm about  / hours drive from Galveston

: Ewan Bonham: So the climate is not unlike ours here..

: Sylectra Darwin: you two are so lucky

: Tess Aristocrat: It's pretty warm here :)

: Tess Aristocrat: Today it was in the 's

: Ewan Bonham: Similar to us...smile

: Tess Aristocrat: *gets her guest room ready for Sylectra :)

: Sylectra Darwin: yey!

: Sylectra Darwin: It was in the s here but that is not too bad

: Sylectra Darwin: We are lucky too for New Jersey.

: Sylectra Darwin: We've only had one snowstorm and it was before Halloween

: Sylectra Darwin: We'd had several bad snowstorms by this time last year.

: Tess Aristocrat: Jersey has its attractions as well :)

: Sylectra Darwin: But I won't be swimming in my ocean, thank you :)
 

: Tess Aristocrat: In fact, every place has its own beauty :)

: Ewan Bonham: And that has a lot to do with our minds as well..
 

: Tess Aristocrat: Well, I will bid you all goodnight :)

: Sylectra Darwin: So right

: Sylectra Darwin: Good night to you, tess!

: Tess Aristocrat: Sweet dreams

: Sylectra Darwin: Good night, Ewan.

: Ewan Bonham: Good nite, Selectra...and thanks for the conversation...:)

: Sylectra Darwin: thank you
