One of the pitfalls of rural living is having to open and close gates. Especially at night, when there is stock in the yards so it adds an extra gate to open AND shut, and when you can feel the frost in your bones by the time you get to the third and final gate you are cold and O-V-E-R IT!
However tonight was a bit of an exception. At the last gate, I looked up. The clear night laid out the most beautiful night sky. It was awash with diamonds, sparkling just for me. So at that moment, I wasn't worried about the cold I just took a minute and drank it all in.
