the snail and the cyclops: Today's Inspiration: Les étoiles et les curiosités du ciel

I had a blog post in mind involving horses - but then this French Astronomy book showed up and the horses are now on the back burner (in time sweet creatures, in time).

With all this wetness and grey clouds I'm really missing those warm nights where you take the long way home. Even though the city light pollution/smog usually clouds up the sky making it impossible to see anything above - it's a nice little surprise when you get far enough away to look up and connect all the little tiny twinkling dots.

So, in the rainy mean time - we make do. Thank you Les étoiles et les curiosités du ciel for all your pretty distractions....
