The night we set up in the camp ground at Dead Horse Point I also had the flashers going. A French couple (tourists) came by and stopped to see what we were doing. I love the way the French speak English. The fellow expressed that he had never looked through a telescope before, so we showed them the comet Q4. The woman made this wonderful noise. I would spell it Wow!, but there was a definite French sound to it that I couldnt imitate. They taught me how to say the "Big Dipper" in French. We went on to show them clusters galaxies, nebula and a host of beautiful heavenly sights. I was surprised that with English being there 2nd or maybe 3rd language that they new so many technical terms; like Wow! Sharing the sights has to be one of the many satisfying things about star gazing. The next day while making my way down Pucker Pass, and enjoying the beauty of the Moab area, I found myself muttering a Mike Bailey phrase, I love this planet.
