Did you ever sleep under the stars?

Many many times. Our favorite place to sleep during the summer was out under a large grape arbor that we had in the yard and we didn't use a tent. The only problem was usually just before dark when the mosquitoes were the worst. It was always cooler out there though than in the upstairs bedrooms where we slept so it was worth battling the bugs. We also lived out on the farm with no yard lights so the milky way was always so easy to see and the stars were so bright. It was always easy to see the big dipper that was my favorite constellation in the sky. It was also never a challenge to find the little dipper and the North Star. I have always loved sleeping out under the stars.
