“Looking up at night is a spectacular way to spend a few hours outside isolated in your own space. It settles nerves in unsettling times, and it situates you in the big picture.”
, known for its Caribbean blue water and deliciously red raspberries, is a popular place for summer rentals and family reunions. My brother is sharing our camp trailer, but I know he wishes he weren’t. He doesn’t have kids. We have our first. He’s 2, and at midnight he’s screaming, “Outside! Outside!”There’s no critter. Just a crier. I get out of bed, step around Caddis and reach for my child. I wrap him in a light blanket with one hand and open the trailer door with the other.
Two steps down from the trailer, seven steps across the dirt and one big step up so I’m perched on the picnic table. As soon as I sit down, my son looks up. Above us, a black canvas is speckled with white dots. He’s staring at the stars.We had talked about the night sky before bed. I explained that our week camping coincided with the annual. It’s a show you can see only in the dark when twinkles try to kiss the Earth with sparkles.
A stargazer for life was born in that moment a decade ago. My son is one of many night-sky watchers, and more are developing during coronavirus stay-at-home orders.
