  • I wrote you privately, Ani, about the clear skies, the stars, and "being above it all" but after I wrote, I went outside. I still saw stars, but I noticed a big "wet" spot under my gutter. The rest of the ground was dry, but apparently something was collecting on the metal roof sufficient to cause "droplets" from the gutter. Interesting.
